2024 EURL Berlin Proficiency Tests
The EURL Berlin is planning to organise two proficiency tests in 2024. Scheduled for the first and second quarter is a proficiency test on beta-agonists in tissue (liver and lung). The participants will be provided with 3-4 test items produced from incurred samples.
For the third and fourth quarter we are planning a proficiency test on avermectins in bovine milk. For this PT we are also producing 3-4 samples from incurred material.

STRD1023: Change of deadline
Since the sample shipment for STRD1023 took an unexpectedly long time the deadline for result submission will be pushed to 01 December 2023. Should we find any evidence for analyte depletion, we will take action so that the proficiency assessment is not affected.
Due to a request by a participant the deadline for result submission for the proficiency test STRD1023 has been postponed to 08 December 2023.
