Standardization of Radon Measurements: II. Accuracy and Proficiency Testing
The accuracy of in situ environmental radon measurement techniques is reviewed and new data for charcoal canister, alpha-track (track-etch) and electret detectors are presented. Deficiencies reported at the 1987 meeting in Wurenlingen. Federal Republic of Germany, for measurements using charcoal detectors are confirmed by the new results. Accuracy and precision of the alpha-track measurements l...

Far too many laboratories consider proficiency testing just a necessary evil, little more than periodic pass–fail exercises we perform solely to meet regulatory requirements. In addition, too many of us belittle point-ofcare (POC) testing as a passing fad, a technology so inferior to what we use in our own laboratories that it hardly warrants our attention. Clearly, a report that combines these...
متن کاملAssessing accuracy on the front lines: a pragmatic approach for single-donor proficiency testing.
Proficiency testing (PT), also known as external quality assessment (EQA), has earned a well-deserved position as one of the most important elements of a laboratory’s quality management program (1 ). By assessing its performance on blinded samples, a laboratory can determine to what extent its results agree with those of its peers or, ideally, with the reference method. Unfortunately, as has be...
متن کاملCultivation of plasmodium spp.
Cultivation of both human and non-human species of Plasmodium spp., the causal agent of malaria, has been a major research success, leading to a greater understanding of the parasite. Efforts at cultivating the organisms in vitro are complicated by the parasites' alternating between a human host and an arthropod vector, each having its own set of physiological, metabolic, and nutritional parame...
