Abstract
This article presents results of the first Italian quality control program for determining the estradiol receptor on lypophilized guinea pig and calf uteri. Despite considerable variability in quantitative terms, the results concur in ability to define samples as positive or negative for receptor content. One of the parameters that most strongly influences accuracy of determination of receptor concentration is protein assay. The evaluation of several lyophilized preparations at scalar concentrations permitted identification, by linear regression, for each laboratory of the systematic and non-systematic variables. More comparable results will be forthcoming when a standardized methodology program has been fully adopted.
