Webinars LabRulezICPMS Week 27/2026

The international standard ISO/IEC 17025 [1] clause 7.7.2 with regards to ensuring the validity of results, requires a laboratory to participate in proficiency testing (PT) and/or to participate in interlaboratory comparisons (ILCs) other than PT. However, no guidance as to what these other ILCs might be, or indeed how they might compare in relation to PT, is provided. This leaflet aims to outline other ILCs available, pointing out some of the limitations as compared to PT.&nbsp;There are three major types of ILCs in which a group of laboratories analyses identical portions from a homogeneous, stable test sample, with each type being characterized by its intended purpose [2,3]:<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Eurachem_Interlaboratory_comparisons_other_than_proficiency_testing_2_d9263807fb.jpg" alt="Eurachem: Interlaboratory comparisons other than proficiency testing" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_Eurachem_Interlaboratory_comparisons_other_than_proficiency_testing_2_d9263807fb.jpg 245w," sizes="100vw" width="1507" height="607">A key point is that PT is an ILC that is designed to specifically evaluate the performance of participants, providing them with an infrastructure to monitor and assess the validity of their results. This is not the key purpose of the two other ILCs, and thus depending on their intended purpose they have a number of limitations that laboratories need to be aware of when using them rather than PT. Only proficiency testing should have been conducted in full compliance to the competency standard ISO/IEC 17043 [4].&nbsp;<h4>Evaluation of measurement procedure performance&nbsp;</h4>These ILCs, are designed to assess how a particular measurement procedure performs and whether it is fit for its intended purpose. These ILCs are often referred to as a ‘method performance study’ or a ‘collaborative study’ [2]. Some limitations of using such ILCs for monitoring laboratory performance as an alternative to PT are:&nbsp;<ul><li>All participants use the same measurement procedure i.e. the measurement procedure that is being validated. Unless the measurement procedure is being routinely used by the participating laboratory such an ILC will not assess the routine performance of the laboratory using their own routine measurement procedure. Nor does it enable them to compare their performance with other laboratories using alternative measurement procedures.&nbsp;</li><li>The measurement procedure is likely to be new, so participants may not have established stable procedures and quality control, so performance may not reflect routine use.&nbsp;</li><li>The report from such an ILC would not provide information on the performance of the participant, if the statistical model used makes the assumption that all laboratories perform with equal variability.</li><li>The design of the study may require the participants to assess multiple samples and/or to undertake multiple replicate analysis on the test materials. This may not be representative of the routine measurements or tests undertaken by the laboratory.&nbsp;</li><li>The conclusion of the ILC might be that the measurement procedure being assessed is not valid.&nbsp;</li></ul><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Eurachem_Interlaboratory_comparisons_other_than_proficiency_testing_3_a53ecd2f5d.jpg" alt="Eurachem: Interlaboratory comparisons other than proficiency testing" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_Eurachem_Interlaboratory_comparisons_other_than_proficiency_testing_3_a53ecd2f5d.jpg 157w," sizes="100vw" width="570" height="566"><h4>Characterisation of candidate reference materials&nbsp;</h4>These are ILCs that assign a property value to a candidate reference material, usually with a stated measurement uncertainty. These are often referred to as a ‘material certification study’ [2]. Limitations of using such ILCs as an alternative to PT are:&nbsp;<ul><li>The analysis of the candidate reference material is likely to require additional care in exercising the routine measurement procedure, such as substantially more replication, and/or may require quite different reporting formats (e.g. all valid replicates instead of a mean result). Thus, such an ILC will not necessarily provide an evaluation of the performance of the laboratory based on the routine use of their measurement procedures.&nbsp;</li><li>The report from such an ILC may include the results from the participating laboratories but would not provide information on the performance of each laboratory.&nbsp;</li><li>Participating laboratories may be required to assess multiple samples and/or to undertake multiple replicate analysis on the candidate reference materials. Thus this may not be representative of the routine measurements or tests undertaken by the laboratory.&nbsp;</li></ul><h4>Other ILCs&nbsp;</h4>Some other ILCs, whilst not being conducted in full compliance of the requirements of ISO/IEC 17043, may be designed to evaluate participant performance. These would include small ILCs as defined by EA‑2/21 [5] or split sample ILCs i.e. where a portion of a single sample is sent to two or three laboratories. Whilst these ILCs are specifically designed to evaluate participant performance, they may not provide a comprehensive comparison that a PT might provide. In such cases the laboratory needs to evaluate carefully the competence of the organization managing the ILC and the suitability of the service externally provided (ISO/IEC 17025 clause 6.6).

Thermo Scientific: ICP-OES Educational Webinar

ICP-OES Educational Webinar

How to easily meet and surpass regulatory requirements for your trace elemental analysis.

In this two-part webinar series, the sources of interferences in ICP-OES and ICP-MS and how to identify them will be described.
Software approaches for correcting interfered results which each technique will be presented and the latest instrumental developments for minimizing interference problems will also be discussed.
Interferences are a well-known problem in both inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and ICP–mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). They can be subdivided into three main types: chemical, physical, and spectral.
<ul>
<li>Chemical interferences are caused by differences in the way sample and calibration solution matrices behave in the plasma, resulting in changes in atomization and ionization that are dependent on the matrix composition of the sample. An example of this type of interference is the enhancement effect (which causes falsely high results) observed on both atom and ion signals for elements such as arsenic and selenium, when carbon is present in the samples but not the calibration solutions.
</li>
<li>Physical interferences are also caused by matrix differences between samples and calibration solutions. Examples of this type of interference include signal suppression (due to high amounts of easily ionized elements, such as sodium, in the samples), drift and signal variability from sample to sample caused by, for example, changes in nebulization efficiency as a result of viscosity differences between samples. These interferences can cause reported results to be either too high or too low if they are not properly corrected for.
</li>
<li>The last, and most challenging, type of interference is spectral interference. For ICP-OES, these are observed as either direct or partial emission wavelength overlaps on the signals of target analytes from other elements or molecular species in the sample. For ICP-MS, spectral interferences from other elements in the sample appear as either direct (from singly charged ions) or half-mass (from doubly charged ions) overlaps on the target ion isotope signals. With ICP-OES, spectral interferences, like physical interferences, can cause falsely high or falsely low results. With ICP-MS, the overlaps caused by interfering signals generate false positive signals, but if incorrect mathematical corrections are applied to the data, falsely low results can also be reported.
</li>
</ul>
Key learning objectives
<ul>
<li>Understand what types of interferences exist in ICP-OES and ICP-MS and how they affect your results.
</li>
<li>Learn strategies for identifying and managing these interferences.
</li>
<li>Find out how innovations in hardware help reduce interferences, improve accuracy, and remove the need to re-run samples.
</li>
<li>Discover how intelligent software tools enable easier, interference-free method development.
