Verification of analytical performance of the microalbumin assay on the Abbott Alinity ci®: Experience of the central laboratory Mohammed VI Oujda

Abstract

The verification of analytical methods is a requirement of the standard NF EN ISO 15 189. It consists of evaluating the performance of an analytical method according to a well-defined protocol and then comparing it with pre-established analytical objectives. The mastery of this approach must be the concern of any biologist. Through this work we present the results of the protocol of verification of the method of determination of microalbumin by comparing two automats: Alinity ci ® and Architect ci-8200® Abbott. Microalbumin monitoring in urine is an important element in the treatment of diabetes mellitus types I and II. It can also be used to predict diabetic nephropathy, which is the leading cause of death in people with insulin-dependent diabetes.

Verification of the analytical performance of CA 19-9 assay on Abbott Alinity ci®: Experience of the central laboratory Mohammed VI Oujda

“…The Biochemistry Laboratory of the hospital university Mohammed VI of Oujda represents a leading healthcare facility in the eastern region of Morocco that is committed to maintaining the highest standards of analytical performance in order to provide reliable and accurate laboratory results for patients, following pre-established guidelines and references [10][11][12][13][14][15]. As part of its commitment to quality, the central laboratory has set up a method verification procedure in accordance with Scope A, as well as an accreditation process.…”

“…Clinical laboratories must adhere to the highest standards of quality and accuracy in their testing processes to provide accurate and reliable results to clinicians and patients, in order to maintain healthcare providers' trust in laboratories [11][12][13][14][15].…”
