Laboratory Quality Control – Acusera
Laboratory Quality Control – Acusera
Acusera true third party quality controls offer complete test menu consolidation for laboratory Internal Quality Control.
Providing accurate and reliable sample material and delivering results you can trust.

Key Benefits of Acusera
Commutability
A commutable sample matrix increases confidence that performance mimics that of patient samples.
Flexibility
With an extensive range of assayed/unassayed, liquid/lyophilised and single/multi-analyte controls, the Acusera portfolio has a solution to suit all laboratory preferences.
Traceability
The values assigned to both our calibrators and control materials are traceable to a recognised reference material or reference measurement procedure meeting ISO 17511 and ISO 18153 requirements.
Accurate Target Values
Our process utilises thousands of independent labs globally, ensuring availability of highly accurate, robust target values for a wide range of instruments and methods, ultimately eliminating the need to spend time and money assigning in-house.
True Third Party Controls
Manufactured independently, the Acusera range delivers unbiased performance assessment with any instrument or method, helping to meet ISO 15189:2012 requirements whilst eliminating the need for multiple instrument dedicated controls.
Consolidation
Specialising in consolidation, the Acusera range of multi-analyte controls is designed to reduce the number of individual controls required to cover your test menu, ultimately reducing costs, preparation time and storage space.
Consistency
Our superior manufacturing processes ensure stability claims and analyte levels won’t differ significantly from lot-to-lot. You can therefore be sure of receiving the same standard of product time and time again.
Shelf Life Longevity
With a shelf life of up to four years for lyophilised controls and two years for liquid controls, you can benefit from continuity of lot supply whilst reducing the frequency of new lot validation studies, thus saving time and money.
Clinically Relevant Levels
The presence of analytes at key decision levels not only helps to ensure accurate instrument performance but maximises laboratory efficiency by eliminating the need for additional low/high level controls at extra expense.
Acusera Internal Quality Control Range
With over 390 parameters, choice and flexibility is guaranteed.

RIQAS EQA Pilot Programmes


RIQAS is the world’s largest External Quality Assessment scheme with more than 55,000 laboratory participants spanning over 134 countries
RIQAS Pilot Programmes
RIQAS G6-PDH PILOT PROGRAMME
Introducing the new RIQAS G6-PDH programme. This free-of-charge programme has been developed to assess the reliability of the confirmatory and screening tests conducted by laboratories when testing for G6PDH deficiencies. This comprehensive pilot study utilises stabilised red cell haemolysates for monitoring G6PDH activity.


Description | Size | Cat. No | Parameters |
---|---|---|---|
G6PDH Programme | 2 x 0.5 ml | RQ9196 | G6PDH (Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) |
- Lyophilised for enhanced stability.
- Stabilised red-cell haemolysate is manufactured to the highest standard.
- Submit results and view reports online via RIQAS.Net.
- Results can be submitted as quantitative and screening (normal/deficient).
- Results reported in activity units only to remove variability in measurement of Erythrocytes or Haemoglobin.
RIQAS ANTI-MULLERIAN HORMONE (AMH) PILOT PROGRAMME
This new pilot scheme for Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) from RIQAS will be supplied to labs free-of-charge. Two samples will be supplied in a lyophilised format.


What is AMH and what is it used for?
AMH is made in the reproductive tissues of both males and females. The role of AMH and whether levels are normal depend on age and gender.
An AMH test is often used to check a woman’s abilitiy to produce eggs that can be fertilized for pregnancy. A woman’s ovaries can make thousands of eggs during her childbearing years. The number declines as a woman gets older. AMH levels help show how many potential egg cells a woman has left. This is known as the ovarian reserve.
If a woman’s ovarian reserve is high, she may have a better chance of getting pregnant. She may also be able to wait months or years before trying to get pregnant. If the ovarian reserve is low, it may mean a woman will have trouble getting pregnant and should not delay very long before trying to have a baby.
AMH tests may also be used to:
- Predict the start of menopause, a time in a woman’s life when her menstrual periods have stopped, and she can’t become pregnant anymore. It usually starts when a woman is around 50 years old.
- Find out the reason for early menopause
- Helps find out the reason for amenorrhea, the lack of menstruation. It is most often diagnosed in girls who haven’t started menstruating by the age of 15 and in women who have missed several periods.
- Help diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a hormonal disorder that is a common cause of female infertility, the inability to get pregnant.
- Check infants with genitals that are not clearly identified as male or female.
- Monitor women who have certain types of ovarian cancer.
Description | Size | Cat. No | Parameters | |
---|---|---|---|---|
AMH Pilot | 2 x 1 ml | RQ9198 | Anti-Mullerian Hormone |
- Lyophilised material for enhanced stability.
- Submit results and view reports online via RIQAS.Net.
- High quality reliable controls – Randox has more than 30 years experience as a global manufacturer of QC controls.
