ISO 23118 addresses Molecular in vitro diagnostic examinations specifies requirements and gives recommendations for the handling, documentation, and processing of urine, venous blood plasma, and serum intended for metabolomics analysis in the pre-examination processes.
ISO 23118 is applicable to metabolomics examinations and can be used by biomedical laboratories, customers of laboratories, in vitro diagnostics developers and manufacturers, institutions and companies performing biomedical research, biobanks, and regulatory authorities.
ISO 23118 is applicable to-
Metabolomics is the "-omic" science that deals with the characterization of the metabolome, in turn, defined as the whole set of small molecules (molecular mass <2 000 Da) in a certain biological system such as a cell, a tissue, an organ, or an entire organism
ISO 23118 helps you with two techniques namely mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The pre-examination phase makes it possible to compare and evaluate the results obtained from the metabolic analysis.
ISO 23118 draws upon studies to codify and standardize the steps for urine, serum, and plasma metabolomics analysis in what is referred to as the pre-analytical phase.
