AOAC SPIFAN Stakeholder Panel Meeting Book (September 7, 2019)

Suggested Questions for Reviewing Methods

Is there a community based need for the OMA to have Final Action status?

Are there any ERP comments or recommendations specified for the method? (Reference ERP report)

Was method validated with SPIFAN Matrix Kit?

Is the OMA currently in use?

Is method in Final Action status?

If yes, is there any equivalency or comparison data with the nutrient Final Action method? (must determine definition and/or test for equivalency)

If no, how many matrices were used (add types or list of matrices used and if they are from SPIFAN I or SPIFAN II set)

If yes, how is being used? Where is it being used? For what purpose is it being used?

If yes, is there method performance data available?
