Transferability studies for the AACC reference method and the IFCC method for measurement of alkaline phosphatase activity.
We present the results of measurements of alkaline phosphatase activity from interlaboratory transferability studies conducted by 12 laboratories in five countries. The variability, as demonstrated by within-day precision (CV less than or equal to 2.6%), between-day precision (CV less than or equal to 3.6%), and between-lab precision (CV less than or equal to 6.3%) establishes the transferability of this method for alkaline phosphatase. Some common errors encountered in enzyme measurements that affect the accuracy and precision of the measurements are listed.
