INTENDED USE
Liquichek Urine Chemistry Control is intended for use as an assayed quality
control urine to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures for the
analytes listed in this package insert.
SUMMARY AND PRINCIPLE
The use of quality control materials is indicated as an objective assessment of
the precision of methods and techniques in use and is an integral part of good
laboratory practices. Multiple levels of control are available to allow monitoring
of the test system’s reliability.
For customers in Germany: Quality control materials are required for assessment
of laboratory performance as described in the “Guideline for Quality Assurance
of Medical Laboratory Examinations following the German Medical Association”
(Rili-BÄK regulation).
REAGENT
This product is prepared from human urine with added chemicals, constituents
of human and animal origin, stabilizers and preservatives. This product is
provided in liquid form for convenience.
STORAGE AND STABILITY
This product will be stable until the expiration date when stored
unopened at 2 to 8°C.
Once opened and stored tightly capped at 2 to 8°C, this product will be stable
as follows:
- All analytes: 30 days
This product is shipped under refrigerated conditions.
PROCEDURE
This product should be treated the same as patient specimens and run in
accordance with the instructions accompanying the instrument, kit, or reagent
being used.
Before sampling, allow this product to reach room temperature (18 to 25°C).
Gently swirl the vial several times to ensure homogeneity. After each use
promptly replace the stopper and return to 2 to 8°C storage.
Dispose of any discarded materials in accordance with the requirements of your
local waste management authorities. In the event of damage to packaging,
contact the local Bio-Rad Laboratories Sales Office or Bio-Rad Laboratories
Technical Services.
LIMITATIONS
1. This product should not be used past the expiration date.
2. If there is evidence of microbial contamination or excessive turbidity in the
product, discard the vial.
3. This product is not intended for use as a standard.
4. Values may gradually decrease over the product shelf life for the following
analyte: Creatinine. Individual laboratory means may eventually fall outside
of the corresponding ranges printed in the data charts.

WARNING
Biological source material. Treat as potentially infectious.
The serum from each donor contributing urine for this product was tested by
FDA accepted methods and found non-reactive for Hepatitis B Surface Antigen
(HBsAg), antibody to Hepatitis C (HCV) and antibody to HIV-1/HIV-2. This product
may also contain other human source materials for which there are no approved
tests. In accordance with good laboratory practice, all human source material
should be considered potentially infectious and handled with the same
precautions used with patient specimens.
Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available for professional users on www.bio-rad.com.
SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
This product is a stabilized liquid product manufactured under rigid quality
control standards. To obtain consistent assay values, the control requires proper
storage and handling as described.
ASSIGNMENT OF VALUES
The mean values and corresponding ±3SD ranges in the Assignment of Values
Data Charts (available separately) were derived from replicate analyses and are
specific for this lot of product. Data from Unity™ Interlaboratory Program are
included in the determination of some ranges. The tests listed were performed
by the manufacturer and/or independent laboratories using manufacturer
supported reagents and a representative sampling of this lot of product. It is
recommended that each laboratory establish its own acceptable ranges and use
those provided only as guides. Laboratory established ranges may vary from
those listed during the life of this control. [Customers in Germany have to follow
the requirements as described in the Rili-BÄK regulation.] Variations over time
and between laboratories may be caused by differences in laboratory technique,
instrumentation and reagents, or by manufacturer test method modifications.
Unity™ Interlaboratory Program is a proprietary Bio-Rad software program
holding more than 2 billion QC data points from thousands of laboratories.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR OBTAINING THE DATA CHARTS
The Data Charts are available through the Internet, at
www.myeinserts.com/66790. Follow the directions at the website to receive
email notifications of insert updates. Alternate methods for receiving data charts
are available by contacting your local Bio-Rad Laboratories Office.

FOOTNOTES
(1) All footnotes may not apply to your custom selected data chart.
(2) All values expressed “per liter” are based on a 24-hour volume of 1 liter.
(3) A dilution should be made prior to running those tests where the value listed exceeds the highest standard.
(4) The mean value is calculated from data generated by instruments using this method.
(5) "Positive" indicates a positive qualitative result. "Negative" indicates a negative qualitative result.
(6) Conversion units:
mg/dL Urea Nitrogen x 2.14 = mg/dL Urea.
mg/dL Urea Nitrogen x 0.357 = mmol/L Urea.
SI value ranges are expressed as Urea.
(7) The assigned values were determined using the reagent and/or instrument manufacturer’s protocol and may not represent ±3SD ranges.
Data is not available at this time. Please inquire.
§ The data required to establish the means and acceptable ranges for this assay were not obtained due to limited assignment participation. If your facility is
interested in participating in the Value Assignment Program for this assay, please contact your local Bio-Rad office.
