Abstract: | In the three earlier editions of News from the Biological Stain Commission (BSC), under the heading of “Regulatory affairs,” the BSC's International Affairs Committee reported on the work of Technical Committee 212, Clinical Laboratory Testing and in Vitro Diagnostic Test Systems of the International Standards Organization (ISO/TC 212) and its working groups, WG 1, WG 2 and WG 3. In this issue of News from the BSC, H.O. Lyon provides information from the annual meeting of ISO/TC 212 that took place June 2–4, 2008 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. In addition, under the heading of “Certification,” J.A. Kiernan examines the certification procedure for thionine used by the BSC laboratory in Rochester, NY. |
