Assessment of the Trueness and Inter-Laboratory Precision of Routine Uric Acid Assays Using 4 Frozen Pooled Serum Samples Measured by the Japan Society of Clinical Chemistry's HPLC Method

Abstract: BackgroundReference procedures are required for evaluating the accuracy of routine analytical systems for uric acid (UA). External quality assessment (EQA) for UA has only been conducted with quality controls in China, and the results have not been published. This study was designed to investigate both the trueness and inter-laboratory precision of UA measurements among routine analytical systems using a candidate reference method.MethodsWe performed the HPLC method recommended by the Japan Society of Clinical… Show more

“…A variation of UA determination can be seen. The differences of measured UA levels due to different laboratory technicians as well as different laboratories are well documented in the literature (2,3). In the present report, the inter-personal and inter-laboratory variations can be expected.…”

“…4,22,23 In addition, for glucose, uric acid, and enzymes, they performed more accurately. 5,21,24,25 Especially for enzymes, the measured values for CK, LDH, and amylase were significantly different from the target values for the Abbott system according to Jansen et al 5 who assessed traceability for those enzymes on various platforms. Based on our results, the measurement accuracy of the Abbott enzyme assays has greatly improved.…”
