ALS Scandinavia participates in the ICP-MS Comparison Programme, an ongoing series of analytical comparisons arranged by Le Centre de Toxicologie du Québec (CTQ). Purpose of this programme is to enable laboratories using ICP-MS for biological samples to compare results. To date, ALS Scandinavia has participated in comparative studies on whole blood, serum/plasma, urine, hair, nails, liver and kidney for a large number of metals.
