Abstract

Abstract Objectives This study systematically compared the performance and comparability of two medical laboratory analytical instruments, the conventional wet chemistry analyzer (cobas) and the dry slide technology (Vitros), across various clinical chemistry assays. Methods The evaluation focused on assessing imprecision, inaccuracy, recovery, and method comparison using leftover patient serum samples. Results The results indicated good to very good agreement for most clinical chemistry analytes, with larger differences observed for comparison of serum patient samples on albumin and protein. Conclusions Understanding and acknowledging method-specific variations, are crucial for accurate result interpretation in clinical laboratories. This study contributes valuable insights to ongoing discussions on method standardization.
