Statement of Work for BioRad Controls:
Brand Name BioRad Controls are needed for quality control testing for a wide range of blood analytes. These analytes are used to aid practitioners in the diagnosis of disease. The quality control material is used on our Abbott Alinity blood analyzers that measure these analytes and were set up by Abbott upon initial installation of the analyzers, passing all performance validation measures. The BioRad controls have specific, known levels of all of these analytes. When these controls are tested on the analyzer, we are able to determine if the analyzer is functioning properly and as a result if the analyzer will test patient blood levels accurately.
