PDQ A1c Control, 400 µL H+L
Glycated Hemoglobin (GHb/HbA1c) Controls are intended for the control of quantitative glycated hemoglobin affinity assays. For in vitro diagnostic use only.
Recognition of the usefulness of glycated hemoglobin/HbA1c in the control of diabetes has led to a substantial demand for its measurement by clinical laboratories. Reliable use of the data generated necessitates good accuracy and precision in the glycated hemoglobin measurement. Factors such as pH, ionic strength, temperature, dilution and column equilibration can affect the performance of the assay. In order to assure the accuracy and precision of this assay, high quality Control material should be used. The Trinity Biotech Glycated Hemoglobin Controls were developed to assist with these requirements. Good laboratory practice provides a system of management controls to ensure the consistency and reliability of analytical results (e.g., standard operating procedures, uniform sample collection and handling practices, performance training of personnel, statistical evaluation of control results, proper storage of test kits and controls, a permanent record of control results, etc.). Use of external control samples assures the test reagents are working properly, that the Trinity Biotech Affinity Glycated Hemoglobin analyzer is calibrated properly, and that the operator has performed the test correctly. If the controls do not perform as expected (i.e., within given acceptance ranges), review the instructions for use to see if the test was performed correctly; repeat the test or contact Trinity Biotech Technical Service before testing patient samples.
