Know Quality: A Lab Perspective on Choosing the Right Molecular QC

Tuesday, July 28
11:30 – 11:50 a.m.
Exhibit Hall Theater 2
Presented by Streck, Inc.

Overview

Selecting a molecular quality control product involves more variables than target performance alone. This session examines the criteria that matter in practice, including consistency across a multiplex panel, specimen-mimicking characteristics that verify the full testing process, and the accessibility of manufacturer support when questions arise.

Drawing on direct experience evaluating and transitioning between QC products, Jose Velasquez offers a ground-level view of what separates adequate quality control from quality control that holds up.
