Reproducibility

Variation arising when identical test materials are analyzed in different laboratories by different operators on different instruments. The standard deviation or relative standard deviation calculated from among-laboratory data. Expressed as the reproducibility standard

deviation (SD R

); or % reproducibility relative standard deviation (% RSD R ). 5

Recovery

The fraction or percentage of analyte that is recovered when the test sample is analyzed

using the entire method.

Milk

For the purposes of this SMPR: “milk” refers to nonfat dry milk from pasteurized skim milk. It contains not more than 5 percent by weight of moisture, and not more than 1.5 percent

by weight of milkfat, 1 as represented by existing reference materials.

5. Method Performance Requirements :

See Table 1.

6. System Suitability Tests and/or Analytical Quality Control:

See antibody information, cross reactivity, information on calibrators and information on matrices in section “Required Allergen-Specific Information to be Provided on the ELISA

Method” of Appendix M.

Method developers should clearly identify what component(s) of milk they are measuring and specifically the method performance with regards to the milk component such as whey (e.g. beta-lactoglobulin), or casein; and the target used to generate immunogens.

Method developers should provide the conversion factor used to equate to non-fat dried

milk.

Method developers should provide applicability statement for intended use and claimed

matrices.

7. Reference Material(s):

Nonfat milk powder
