[Assessment of validity of the archived standard curve in endotoxin assay, produced in other facilities].
We have reported the possibility of the use of the archived standard curve of endotoxin assay, which is prepared in the same facility from the viewpoint of the accuracy and precision. In this study, the possibility of the use of the archived standard curves prepared in the different facilities was investigated with the same data set in the previous paper. The evaluation was performed with the recovery rate of the concentrations of the standard solutions, as the same method as the previous study. The clotting times of the standard solutions were substituted into the standard curves prepared in the different facilities from those, in which standard solutions were prepared. The recovery rates were 86.1-125.0%, and the range was almost the same as that when the facility preparing standard solutions were the same as that preparing the standard curve. From this data, if the protocols of the preparation of standard solutions, such as mixing and the interval timing until set to the apparatus and so on, can be set the same between the endotoxin test and the preparation of the archived standard curves, the endotoxin concentration calculated with the archived standard curves prepared in other facilities were not varied very much, compared to the true values and the values obtained from the use of the archived standard curves prepared in the same facility.
