What is AMH?
An AMH test is often used to check a woman’s ovarian reserve or ability 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.
AMH tests may also be used to:
• Predict the start of menopause
• Find out the reason for early menopause
• Help find out the reason for amenorrhea, the lack of menstruation.
• Help diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
• Check infants with genitals that are not clearly identified as male or female
• Monitor women who have certain types of ovarian cancer

Microbiology (Bacterial Identification) Programme
The RIQAS Microbiology Programme includes the identification of micro-organisms to Gram positive/negative, Genus and Species levels, together with Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing according to chosen Guidelines.
Available in a bi-monthly format with 3 samples distributed twice per year. Each strain is presented in a lyophilised pellet form within a self-contained tube containing a pre-filled ampoule for reconstitution, therefore helping to avoid cross contamination.
- Lyophilised for enhanced stability
- Multiple registrations allow for comparison between lab staff
- Possible to be used as a training tool for new and current staff
- Samples are manufactured to the highest quality
- Bi-monthly reporting
- Submit results and view reports online via RIQAS.Net
- Cycle Starts – July 2025

Serum Indices External Quality Assessment
The RIQAS Serum Indices EQA programme is designed for the pre-analytical assessment of Haemolytic, Icteric and Lipemic (HIL) interferences.
Available in a bi-monthly format with the option to report either quantitative or semi-quantitative results for the HIL parameters, this programme also provides an assessment on how these interferences impact on up to 25 routine chemistry parameters. This provides invaluable information on whether a correct judgement is being made to report results.
- Lyophilised for enhanced stability
- Human based serum ensuring commutable sample matrix
- Bi-monthly reporting
- HIL parameters include the option of quantitative or semi-quantitative reporting
- Interpretation of chemistry parameter results
- Submit results and view reports online via RIQAS.Net
- Cycle Starts – October 2025
