Development of reference panels for serological testing Intended use, fitness for purpose Amadeo Sáez-Alquézar Second WHO Consultation: Development of a WHO reference panel for the control of Chagas diagnostic tests Geneva - 2009
Serological Screening and Diagnostic of infectious diseases Quality Control Procedures Serum Panels as a Reference An indispensable tool
Serum Panels as a Reference Tool Internal Control sera (ICS) Low reactivity (OD/CO: 2, 0 – 4, 0) Specific Panels Performance Panels Positive and Negative Samples Very Well Characterized Panels or Multipanels (EQAS) To use in External Evaluation Reference Panels Worldwide avaliable

Sample Dilution To prepare sera panels must be necessary obtain adequate volume of each sample. For this purpose should be necessary dilute samples, with negative serum or by mixture with other positive samples. It is important to observe some criteria to make dilutions

Samples Characterization • We consider the more important step to assess the quality of panels
Testing samples ü Tests used in the serological screening are qualitative tests • determines whether the substance being tested for is present or absent ü Results obtained by the PL will be compared with a reference panel sent by de Organizer Center. So the reference panel must be very well tested, to assure the certainty of the results

In the absence of a universally accepted confirmatory test, how can the samples that were reactive in the serological screening be confirmed?

Conclusion 1. 2. 3. The best source for reference panels are plasma units from Blood banks (transformed in sera units) Positive samples (anti-T. cruzi) could be diluted until 1: 2 (no more) Positive samples (anti-T. cruzi) must be tested by, at least: ü ü ü 4. 6 differente ELISA tests (Lys and rec) 1 IHA test 1 suplemmental test (TESA blot, Immunoblot or RIPA) Samples (anti-T. cruzi +) of reference panels must be positive by ELISA and IHA tests
