Enhancing the laboratory quality assurance using the MYKIMIA Proficiency Testing Provider (PTP) food scheme data
Accuracy, reliability, defensibility, and timeliness are all aspects of laboratory quality. The outcomes must be error-free in order to produce high accuracy data. Valid methods and calibrated equipment are referred to as reliability. To dispute the laboratory results, all possible errors were ident...

Accuracy, reliability, defensibility, and timeliness are all aspects of laboratory quality. The outcomes must be error-free in order to produce high accuracy data. Valid methods and calibrated equipment are referred to as reliability. To dispute the laboratory results, all possible errors were identified and the measurement uncertainties were estimated. The certificate of analysis or report must be issued timely. Laboratories in Malaysia was referred to the ISO/IEC 17025 for accreditation purpose. There are three essential elements defined as the backbone of the laboratory quality system. Validate analytical methods, accreditation involving third part auditing and participation in proficiency testing (PT). For this study, PT data is used as a tool to assess laboratory quality management systems' competency.
