The Rise Of POCT: Balancing Convenience With Quality Control

In recent years, Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) has gained significant popularity due to its many advantages. One of its key benefits is the ability to obtain rapid results at the patient’s bedside, enabling immediate clinical action and potentially improving patient outcomes. However, the effectiveness of POCT depends on the accuracy and reliability of the diagnostic data generated, making quality control essential to ensuring consistent and trustworthy performance. JTC specializes in the production of tailored bulk controls, offering a cost-effective and consistent solution for IVD manufacturers and supply chains worldwide.

Benefits

High Commutability By Human Serum/Blood Matrix

Excellent Analyte Stability

Time points represent the weeks after manufacturing. Recommended shelf life is 12
weeks for blood based POCT CRP and POCT Glucose controls. Each sample at every time point was measured three times.

Accelerated stability of each production lot is evaluated after incubation at 37 °C for one week and compared
with reference samples stored at +2–8 °C. Triplicate measurements are performed for each condition,
and a change of less than 20% between conditions is expected.

Excellent Vial-To-Vial Homogeneity

Each production lot undergoes homogeneity testing by selecting random vials after filling, in accordance with ISO 13528. After statistical evaluation,
batches are released using total allowable error limits for CRP and glucose
as defined in the Rilibäk guideline.

Minimal Lot-To-Lot Variation

Consistent target values are maintained across production lots, providing familiar results and ease of use for customers.

Clinically Relevant Levels

To assess assay performance in relation to the assay range and critical values
that hold importance for clinical decision making

Ready To Use Material Without Any Reconstitution Step
