Ensure accurate steroid results with serum calibrator sets
Our serum calibrator sets, MassTrak Steroid Serum Calibrator Set 1 (RUO), MassTrak Steroid Serum Calibrator Set 2 (RUO), and MassTrak Steroid Serum Calibrator Set 3 (RUO), are ideal for quantifying steroids in human serum for clinical research methods. These are traceable to NIST CRM and reference measurement procedures such as RfB (Germany) and University of Ghent for select analytes with customer-guided wide concentration ranges for all analytes.
Typical concentration values are shown in the table images. Please refer to your lot-specific certificate of analysis (COA) for exact concentrations. The COA can be found in the box or on Waters.com.
Ensure consistency with the high lot-to-lot manufacturing of QC sets
Our serum QC sets, MassTrak Steroid Serum QC Set 1 (RUO), MassTrak Steroid Serum QC Set 2 (RUO), and MassTrak Steroid Serum QC Set 3 (RUO) are also are traceable to NIST CRM and reference measurement procedures such as RfB (Germany) and University of Ghent for select analytes. The concentration values for the controls are based on customer feedback, Endocrine Society guidelines and CDC NSQAP.
Typical concentration values are shown in the table images. Please refer to your lot-specific certificate of analysis (COA) for exact concentrations. The COA can be found in the box or on Waters.com.
