#VALIDAct is dead. Long live #CLIA. When the omnibus end-of-year appropriations bill was released this morning VALID was not included. As a result, there will be no legally mandated U.S. FDA oversight of lab-developed tests or CLIA labs for at least the next few years.

Our latest work is out on impurity ratios for mass spec #toxicological analysis, with Ibrahim Choucair Thomas Durant courtesy of Yale Lab Medicine.

Our new study showed that Rapid Serum Tubes (RST) can protect the sample from hemolysis during transport and does not have the same “outliers” seen with high sensitivity Troponin in plasma samples (PST & Barricor).
