title: Properties and units in the clinical laboratory sciences. I. Syntax and semantic rules IUPAC--IFCC recommendations 1995.
abstract: This document is an updating of previous recommendations on the presentation of properties and their values in clinical laboratory sciences from IFCC, IUPAC and WHO. It forms part of the ongoing effort towards 'standardization' of transmission of laboratory requests and reports across cultural/language domains while avoiding standardization of the language used by clinicians or laboratory practitioners. Subsequent documents will list the kinds-of-property and the properties used in clinical laboratory sciences.
