CARRYOVER & REPRODUCIBILITY
OBJECTIVES
Given an operating COULTER® LH 700 Series, access to HELP, and required
supplies
• Perform a Reproducibility study, verify and print results
• Perform a Carryover study, verify and print results
Why Is It Important?
Regulatory agencies require that carryover and reproducibility studies be
performed periodically.

Resources
To complete this module you will need:
• LH 700 Series Analyzer
• LH Workstation with HELP
• Supplies for reproducibility: 2 EDTA tubes of blood from the same donor, and
1 additional EDTA tube of blood to use as a Prime.
• Supplies for carryover, 2 EDTA tubes of blood, 3 empty EDTA tubes

NOTE: The procedures in this module are adapted from the HELP system. To
make the procedures easier to follow, various sub-procedures from hypertext
have been “blended” to make a continuous procedure. Some steps may apply
particularly to this exercise and not necessarily to your lab.

What To Learn
How to perform reproducibility and carryover procedures and verify acceptable
results.
