Abstract:
The NRS/CHOL is a reality that is progressively becoming the way in which accuracy of cholesterol results is being ensured. Proof of traceability to NRS/CHOL within each segment of the clinical laboratory, now an expectation, will soon be the norm that makes a sound conceptual reference system into an everyday reality that reaches into the many thousands of working sites that measure cholesterol in serum on patient samples.
