VERICHEM LABORATORIES offers clinical laboratories their multi-analyte, multi-level, and completely liquid stable MATRIX PLUS Chemistry Reference Materials, which are expressly designed for the calibration verification of chemistry assays on diagnostic instrument systems.
These unique materials, along with the optional stand-alone and ultra-high Level F, comprise a comprehensive set containing six (6) separate concentration levels of seven (7) individual chemistry analyte components. The analytes available include Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Calcium, Creatinine, Glucose, Magnesium, Phosphorus, and Triglyceride. These materials not only support overall system QC and CLIA compliance but serve as valuable tools in determining a clinical system’s bias to the known value, with all being suitable for use on multiple analyzers utilizing a wide variety of testing methodologies, including visible spectrum, ultraviolet, kinetic, and/or endpoint.
All of VERICHEM’s MATRIX PLUS Chemistry Reference Materials incorporate a buffered protein based matrix for serum-like reactivity and are intended to be treated just as patient specimens, as per CLIA mandates. The product formulation is free of glycols, surfactants, azides, and other interfering substances. Each active component concentration is verified against available Standard Reference Materials from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and fully documented with a Certificate of Analysis containing lot-specific testing data.
