Analytical Validity:
Help
Accuracy (clinical sensitivity) was assessed by analysis of known positive specimens; results were acceptable. Intra assay precision was performed with 5 replicates for blood samples and 10 replicates for bile samples, results were acceptable. Inter assay precision was performed over 2 days for blood and bile samples, results were acceptable.
Assay limitations:
Help
Both blood and bile specimens must be collected in order to detect and independently confirm the largest possible number of disorders. However, if only one specimen type is available, testing is still beneficial. In cases with a higher level of suspicion due to the recognition of 1 or more risk …
