Product

lmmunalysis EDDP Urine Control Set 1 The EDDP Urine Controls (High 125 ng/ml and Low 75 ng/ml) are used as control materials in the ammonolysis EDDP Specific Urine Enzyme Immunoassay, which has a cutoff of 100 ng/ml. This test provides only a preliminary analytical test result and a more specific alternate chemical method, such as Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry or Liquid Chromatography/Tandem Mass Spectrometry, must be used to obtain a confirmed analytical result.

Reason

The High (125 ng/ml) Control does not meet specification - it has been confirmed to produce values below 100 ng/mL when run on validated clinical chemistry analyzers, which is below the 100 ng/mL cutoff of the EDDP Specific Urine Enzyme Immunoassay with which this control is utilized.
