Question
1. Enumerate reasons why erroneous results occur in the clinical laboratory, and what are possible
measures to prevent them.
2. The Benzodiazepines test device is a qualitative, preliminary test which would be able to detect
whether Benzodiazepines are present in the urine specimen at the cut-off concentration of 300
ng/mL. Is it possible to have a urine specimen which was interpreted as POSITIVE using the
Benzodiazepines test device to be interpreted as NEGATIVE by Gas Chromatography/Mass
Spectrometry? Justify your answer.
3. A study was conducted by the manufacturer of the benzodiazepines test device to determine
whether some compounds would have cross-reactivity at levels of 100ug/mL. List down examples
of non cross-reacting compounds
