ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the capacity of laboratories participated in the proficiency testing (PT) of determination potassium in serum and improve the quality of testing, and put forward technical suggestions for unsatisfied laboratories.@*METHODS@#According to the requirements of CNAS related documents, the homogeneity and stability of the real PT sample were evaluated by one-way ANOVA and t test, respectively. The values of real PT samples were assigned by reference method which was used in PT results assay. It is required that the deviation of value of real PT samples (code:2, 3, 5) between the measured value and the assigned value shall be within ±15.0%. The precision of values for all samples should not be greater than 3.0%.@*RESULTS@#All the laboratories submitted valid data according to the requirements. Only one laboratory did not meet the requirements, and the satisfaction rate was 90.9%.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The ability of most of laboratories are accurate and reliable.

Objective:To evaluate the capacity and level of melting point determination of chemical drugs in the laboratories par-ticipating in the proficiency testing. Methods:Two test samples were prepared, and the labs volunteered to participate in the proficien-cy testing program ( PTP) . The melting point determination was performed according to the general principle 0612 in part four of Chi-nese Pharmacopoeia (2015 edition), and the results were analyzed by robust statistics and the determination proficiency of the laborato-ries were evaluated by Z-score. Results:The analysis showed that two test samples were homogeneous and stable, which met the re-quirements of the PTP. Totally 31 laboratories had satisfactory results, which accounted for 83. 8%. Conclusion:The majority of the participant laboratories can accurately determine the melting points of test samples, and the information is very helpful to the next profi-ciency testing program.
ABSTRACT
To understand the status of testing skills and quality management in drug testing laboratories. Methods:The items, pass rate and type of participating laboratories of measurement audit were analyzed during 2011-2014. Results:The number of application items was increased year by year, more than half of which focused on the content determination, and the overall pass rate was over 80%. Conclusion:The measurement audit is important for laboratories, which should be further strengthened and standard-ized.
