Variability in the Laboratory Measurement of Cytokines: A Longitudinal Summary of a College of American Pathologists Proficiency Testing Survey.

CONCLUSIONS.—: This retrospective analysis of College of American Pathologists proficiency testing data for cytokine measurement is the largest method comparison to date, and this study provides a description of the variation of cytokine measurement across methods, across laboratories, and within laboratories. Serial monitoring of cytokines should preferentially be performed by the same method within the same laboratory. PMID: 32401053 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
