Table 4 MP biomedicals inter-assay precision and intra-assay precision GASTRIN (¹²⁵I) radioimmunoassay kit

Sample	Control 1	Control 2	Control 3	Serum
Inter-assay precision, gastrin
n	20	20	20	20
Mean, pg/mL	56.7	232	465	49.4
S.D.	2.59	9.56	26.1	2.91
% CV	4.6	4.1	5.6	5.9

Regarding cortisol quality control, the inter-assay CV was 10 % at 80 nmol/L and 8 % at 550 nmol/L
Regarding CRP Quality Control, for homemade dog serum pool, the inter-assay CV was 6 % at 27.4 mg/L
