Our metal analysis laboratory in Luleå, Sweden, is equipped to perform metals analysis of clinical samples for clinical and non-clinical studies as well as routine testing. Our ISO/EN 17025 accreditation covers blood, urine, serum/plasma and other bodily fluids of both human and animal origin. In addition to our analytical services, we also offer method development, validation, method transfer and cross-validation services.
Our laboratory complies with international quality standards including:
We actively participate in interlaboratory comparisons related to analysis of clinical sample matrices. Click here to find the relevant quality documentation (new window) .
