Short Abstract

System Suitability Tests (SST) are a valuable tool for ensuring data quality in clinical diagnostic testing. The information gleamed from running an SST prior to analysis can dictate whether a batch of samples is run and, if not, acts as an immediate troubleshooting guide. Additionally it provides data over time to determine preventative maintenance required to develop a robust platform. Focusing on LC-MS/MS this presentation will cover creating an SST material, a number of different SST strategies and deciding on acceptance criteria to use.
