Virus Immunology - Hepatitis B Virus Program 1 (HBsAg, Anti-HBs, Anti-HBc, HBeAg, Anti-HBe) (344)
Samples:
5 samples of 1.5 mL
Sample properties:
Liquid serum
Additional Information:
Please note: Note: The EQA schemes for hepatitis B virus immunology have been restructured to incorporate diagnostic scenarios. Instead of individual samples for each parameter, samples with simulated diagnostic scenarios will be sent out in the future. Since only a few laboratories perform testing for anti-HBc-IgM, this parameter has been moved to the separate Program 345. All other parameters of HBV serology are grouped together in this Program 344.
For POCT systems: Please ensure that the sample matrix used in the EQA scheme is suitable for your test system. In case of uncertainty, we recommend contacting the manufacturer or supplier of your device.
