Abstract

The rise in alkaline phosphatase activity has been studied after reconstitution of 16 commercial preparations of lyophilised quality control material. The effects of storage temperature and analytical method on the rise in activity have also been studied, with a view to producing a reconstitution protocol suitable for recommendation to participants in external quality control surveys. Great differences were found in the magnitude of this rise in activity; these differences can be reduced to negligible levels if the material is mixed for 30 minutes at ambient temperature after reconstitution and then stored for not more than 4 hours at 4 degrees C before assay.
