July 2015—Streck’s Calibration Verification Assessment (CVA) is now assayed for the Horiba ABX Micros 60 instrument. CVA is an assayed linearity control kit used to determine the patient reportable range of three-part and five-part hematology instruments. CVA also measures the linear performance of the analyzer. Each kit has customized ranges appropriate for each instrument model and provides instrument-specific assay values for the white blood cell, platelet, red blood cell, and hemoglobin parameters. WBC and platelet parameters have extended ranges, providing values up to 410,000 and 3.5 million for instruments with extended linearities. All kits include WBC, PLT, and RBC/Hgb vials unless otherwise noted.
Streck also offers CVA for Cell-Dyn, an assayed linearity control kit used to determine the patient reportable range of three-part and five-part hematology instruments.
Data can be submitted to Streck for a comprehensive linearity report at no additional charge. Reports include a graph that clearly displays the instrument’s linearity and accuracy, a peer group comparison, and an interpretive results section—a tool to demonstrate compliance with laboratory regulations.
