We can characterize materials in the following cases:

  • Characterize new enzyme reference materials performing homogeneity, stability and commutability studies (in collaboration with the JRC).
  • Assign and certifies catalytic concentration values to already developed reference materials by means of certification campaigns among laboratories (in collaboration with the IRMM).
  • Assign traceable values of catalytic concentration to internal calibrator materials, thus facilitating manufacturers to meet the requirements of the European Directive 2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic medical devices.
  • Assign traceable values of catalytic concentration to control materials of national or commercial external evaluation quality programs (EQAS) and internal quality control, replacing the concept of “value-dependent method” to the “reference method value” and facilitating the accomplishment to the international standard ISO/IEC 17043.
