[Histonet] analytical specificity and interferring substances

[shehnaz khan]

Hello Histonetters,

Could someone kindly shed some light on the follwing CAP standard and how
to implement for histology and cytology:

*Analytical Specificity  /  Interferring Substances:*
For modified FDA-cleared / approved tests or laboratory developed tests,
the results of each validation study include a sufficient number of samples
to establish the test's analytical specificity.
NOTE: The analytic specificity refers to the ability of a test or procedure
to correctly identify or quantify an entity in the presence of interferring
or cross-reactive substances that might be expected to be present.

A million thanks

S. Kahn
