SECTION 252:301-7-16. Analyte absence
Latest version.
- (a) Generally. If a PT sample is not given for a particular analyte for which a laboratory is requesting accreditation, accreditation for the analyte may be obtained by qualifying for accreditation for the entire category in which the analyte is found. To be eligible for accreditation in the entire category, the laboratory shall pass seventy-five percent (75%) of all PT available analytes within the category. If a laboratory completely fails an individual analyte and still receives a 75% passing rate, the laboratory will not be granted accreditation for that particular analyte but will be accredited for the rest of the category.(b) Exception. Laboratories which have or are pursuing accreditation for the Basic Environmental Category are not subject to subsection (a) of this section.
