Understanding Proficiency Testing and the Importance of Z-Scores
Proficiency Testing (PT) is an essential tool used by laboratories to validate their testing accuracy. The Z-Score measures how close the lab's results are to the assigned values. A Z-Score within the acceptable range confirms that the laboratory consistently delivers precise, reproducible results, reinforcing customer trust and ensuring compliance with international standards.
Eurofins' Performance in the Latest PT Round
Eurofins participated in Programme No. 7556 for Nutritional Food Supplements, where multiple parameters were tested, including toxic metals such as Arsenic, Cadmium, Chromium, and essential nutrients like Zinc and Selenium. The results demonstrated outstanding accuracy, with Z-Scores for most parameters falling within the acceptable range, confirming the lab's consistent performance.
