What is RIQAS?
RIQAS, the external
quality assessment scheme from Randox Laboratories, is the world’s
first clinical EQA scheme to gain UKAS accreditation. EQA schemes
serve to stimulate and monitor improvements in inter-laboratory
agreement to facilitate optimal patient care. RIQAS provides a first
class inter laboratory comparison assessment service and is
currently used by circa 5000 laboratories in 59 countries around the
world.
Already ISO 13485 accredited, the quality management assessment
system of RIQAS has been assessed by and meets the requirements of
an internationally recognized quality assessment system.
RIQAS has been providing ‘Proficiency Testing Schemes’ for
laboratories worldwide for over 14 years. Today RIQAS offers 9
programs with 166 analytes and prides itself in being a dynamic,
user-led scheme, offering flexible program choice for laboratory
medicine EQA. RIQAS recognizes that the needs of laboratories
participating in EQA programs can vary significantly and therefore
offers flexible program choice. Participating laboratories receive
user-friendly, charted reports with rapid turn around times. Advice,
assistance and support from a highly trained technical support team
and independent advisory panel are also available.
Since the purpose of an EQA scheme is to assess a laboratory’s
ability to accurately and correctly analyze patient samples, it is
imperative that the EQA scheme itself is audited to ensure their
procedures are of an acceptable standard. RIQAS can now strengthen
the message that it is a first-class EQA provider with international
acclaim!
What is 247 Registration?
247
registration software allows rapid data
entry by user-defined panels, serum groups or tests and enables
laboratories to monitor (internal quality control) and compare (peer
group reporting) analytical performance with thousands of
laboratories worldwide. Multilevel passwords are available to ensure
that only authorized personnel can amend category listings. This
package is offered in partnership with Randox’s Quality Control
Sera.
Quality Control Sera? !
Selecting control
products to suit your laboratory’s needs has never been easier!
Randox have introduced an easy selection guide with color-coded
control levels to enable rapid selection of control products to suit
the needs of your laboratory.
 All
Randox control products are manufactured to the same high
specifications using procedures recognized by ISO 13485.
Betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase (BHMT)
is one of the two enzymes known to methylate
homocysteine to produce methionine in the liver. This enzyme is a
focus of great interest due to the role of homocysteine as a
potential independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. BHMT
is an oligomer composed of four identical subunits, that belong to
the thiol-selenol methyltransferases family. The 3d structure shows
the mechanism
activating the thiol substrate which is common to the family. It
also reveals the conformational changes produced during the
enzymatic reaction and the structural requirements which are
specific for the different functionality within the family.
Count on GMI and Randox for all of your homocysteine and other
substrate chemistry testing.
