In accordance with the ISO 15189 standard for medical laboratories and ISO 17025 standard for testing laboratories any measurement equipment used for testing that has significant influence on the accuracy or validity of the test result needs to be calibrated to (inter)national standards (requirement 5.3.1.4 of ISO 15189: 2012 and requirement 6.4.5 & 6.4.6 of ISO 17025: 2017).
CYCLERtest offers a unique on-site calibration service.
The advantages:
•You meet the ISO 15189 or ISO 17205) quality requirements
•The temperature calibration is traceable to international quality standards
•You support reliable and reproducible (q)PCR results
•The service applies to all models of all brands of thermocyclers and dry heating block incubators
•Your equipment downtime is less than 40 minutes.
Because we are independent of every thermal cycler manufacturer, CYCLERtest is the only qualified calibration laboratory in the world that can calibrate real-time PCR equipment under ISO 17025.
Thermocycler manufacturers are not able to perform metrologically traceable calibrations under ISO 17025, partly because they are not independent.
