Multichem: Liquid Stable Quality Controls:
The high quality of our plasma components together with other proprietary stabilisation procedures have facilitated the development of a complete product portfolio of high quality, human based, liquid stable, test consolidated quality control materials for the clinical laboratory. Our Multichem range provides the complete quality control solution for today’s automated laboratory, where a wide range of analytes, that were formerly analysed on a series of individual systems, have now been consolidated onto a single platform. This range of test consolidated control material provides our customers with a range of unprecedented benefits with respect to cost, efficiency, performance and analytes. The Multichem product range includes, Chemistry, Immunology, Immunoassay, Maternal Serum, Vitamin D, HbA1c and Drugs of Abuse
Multichem S: Serum Chemistry and Immunoprotein control, including CRP and RF
Multichem IA: Serum Immunoassay control including Thyroids, Fertility, Anaemia, Tumour Markers and Cardiac Markers.
Multichem P: Elevated Serum Immunoprotein Control to complement Multichem S
Multichem U: Urinary chemistry control with human based Microalbumin
Multichem C: Serum Cardiac Marker and PTH Control .
All our quality control products are manufactured using a unique human based stable matrix, which eliminates the requirement of high levels of preservatives, which are used in many other commercially available materials. Some of these preservatives are highly toxic and when used in conjunction with bovine based products adversely affect the behavioural characteristics of the matrix and interfere with the accuracy and reproducibility of the test methods. The Multichem matrix however, mimics very closely that of a patient sample and thereby minimises any such matrix effects.
