Device Story
Randox Liquid Assayed Chemistry Control Premium Plus (Levels 1, 2, 3) consists of human serum-based quality control materials containing biochemicals, chemicals, drugs, preservatives, and stabilizers. Used in clinical laboratories to monitor accuracy and reproducibility of diagnostic assays across various instrument systems (e.g., Beckman Coulter AU, Hitachi Modular, Siemens Advia, Roche Cobas, Randox RX). Supplied as frozen liquid in 12 x 5ml vials; requires thawing before use. Healthcare providers use the control material to verify instrument performance; results are compared against assigned values provided in the package insert. Benefits include ensuring diagnostic assay reliability and consistency in clinical decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Stability studies (real-time) confirmed shelf life of 18 months at -20°C to -70°C and open-vial stability of 7 days (3 days for Troponin T) at 2-8°C. Value assignment performed via replicate in-house analysis and confirmation by external laboratories.
Technological Characteristics
Human serum matrix with added biochemicals, chemicals, drugs, preservatives, and stabilizers. Supplied as frozen liquid (12 x 5ml vials). Analyte values assigned via gravimetric preparation and multi-instrument analysis. Storage: -20°C to -70°C. Open-vial stability: 7 days at 2-8°C (3 days for Troponin T).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an assayed quality control material to monitor the accuracy or reproducibility of diagnostic assays in a clinical laboratory setting. No specific patient population is targeted as the device is used for instrument quality control.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.

Traceability:
The analytes contained in the Randox Liquid Assayed Chemistry Controls Premium Plus Levels 1, 2, and 3 were obtained from commercially available sources. Control solutions are derived from gravimetrically prepared stock solutions and analyzed in-house.
Value Assignment:
Values are assigned through multiple analyses in-house on instrumentation calibrated with a master lot of calibrator. The mean and the CV ranges printed in the package insert were derived from replicate analyses and are specific for the lot. Assigned values of each batch of Liquid Assayed Chemistry Control Premium Plus are confirmed using several external laboratories with several different instrument families. Assigned control ranges are listed in the labeling by instrument family and analyte methods.
Stability Studies:
Real Time stability studies were conducted for closed and open vials. The shelf life of the Liquid Chemistry Assayed Control Premium Plus Levels 1, 2, and 3 is 18 months from the date of manufacture when stored at −20°C to −70°C. Open vial stability when stored refrigerated (+2°C to +8°C): Thawed control is stable for 7 days at +2°C to +8°C, with the following exceptions: Troponin T is stable for 3 days at +2°C to +8°C.
Real time studies are ongoing. Shelf life and open-vial stability studies protocols and acceptance criteria were reviewed and found to be acceptable.
