Application

This SRM is intended primarily for use in evaluating the accuracy of procedures for the determination of the steroid hormones cortisol, progesterone, and testosterone, and thyroid hormones total thyroxine (T4), and total 3,3′,5-triiodothyronine (T3) in human serum.It is also intended for use in validating working or secondary reference materials.

Features and Benefits

A unit of SRM contains two vials of each material. Each vial approximately contains 2 mL of human serum Both materials in the SRM are unfortified Certified mass fraction and mass concentration values for testosterone and the uncertainties are provided in the accompanying certificate of analysis (CoA) Metrological traceability is to the SI-derived unit of mass fraction expressed as nanograms per gram The enclosed CoA contains information on the SRM′s expiry date and instructions for its handling, storage, and use

General description

A unit of SRM 971a consists of two vials each of two materials: one from a pool of healthy, premenopausal adult females and one from a pool of healthy adult males. The certified values of the SRM were determined using higher-order reference measurement procedures calibrated with high-purity chemical reference standards in combination with higher-order measurement procedures conducted by the CDC. The uncertainties are expanded uncertainties at the 95 % level of confidence. The certified values of the SRM, apply only to serum thawed to room temperature, 20 °C to 25 °C.
