Algal toxin proficiency testing programs

GOLD-STANDARD-DIAGNOSTICS-A-Turn-Key-Solution-fig-5

  • Annual drinking water round – January registration; runs February/March
  • Annual recreational/raw water round – May registration; runs June/July
  • Online registration
  • Participants receive a unique code to maintain confidentiality unless release is authorized
  • Materials for sample prep and analysis are sold separately

Use:

  • Obtain an independent assessment of laboratory performance
  • Assess lab performance against other labs
  • Demonstration of lab capabilities and competency

Proficiency Testing Process Overview

Registration
Customer submits online registration form.
A completed registration form and PO are required to finalize registration
Distribution
We produce and distribute test samples (water samples spiked with known toxin congeners and concentrations)
Testing & Results
Testing & Results
Each participant lab tests the samples using its own equipment, test method (i.e., HPLC, ELISA, PP2A, etc.) and personnel and forwards the results back to us
Final Reports
We prepare and send a program report including lab reported results, method used and statistical evaluation of results compared to other labs performing the same analysis
