Popis: The described reference serum is characterized by: liquid human serum at “normal” level stored in frozen state at −80°C; minimum damage of proteins; aseptic preparation; cryoprecipitate and excess fibrin removed; serum cleared by ultracentrifugation; pH at 7.2–7.6; available in sealed glass ampoules with inert gas (one ml serum in each); specified components among most frequently analyzed analytes; homogeneity assured and stability monitored; produced under strict rules for good manufacturing practices (GMP).The assigned values are traceable to reference measurement procedures and reference materials of highest achievable metrological level; according to the present proposal the maximum allowable uncertainty of the assigned value is based on biological variation (shared common reference intervals); the uncertainty should ideally not exceed 1/5 of the maximum allowable bias of results obtained on patients samples (even 1/2 would theoretically be acceptable and, for a practical guide approximately
