Non-clinical studies refer to the laboratory conditions of the in vitro diagnostic reagents for the test or evaluation including the main raw materials.
1, laboratory conditions
Non-clinical research tests are mainly conducted under laboratory conditions, the laboratory provides a controlled environment, including constant temperature, humidity and light conditions. The laboratories are also equipped with a variety of laboratory equipment and instruments to support testers in testing and evaluating in vitro diagnostic reagents, and in the manufacturing process, testing and evaluating major raw materials and finished products.
2. Test content
The test for non-clinical research is to evaluate the basic performance of the reagent, sensitivity, specificity, linear range and accuracy, which reflect the quality and reliability of the reagent in detecting the target analyte. It is to test the stability of the reagent to study the storage and use performance of the reagent under different conditions. Non-clinical studies are an important part of in vitro diagnostic reagent development and quality control.
3, data analysis and reporting
After the end of the non-clinical research test, the test personnel need to analyze and interpret the test data. Through statistical and comparative analysis, the performance and reliability of the reagents can be assessed. In accordance with the test results, the trialists write a test report, describing in detail the test process, results and conclusions, and summarizing the purpose and significance of the test.
Importance and application of non-clinical studies:
1. Importance of non-clinical studies
Non-clinical studies are vital to the development of new in vitro diagnostic reagents. During the development of a new product, non-clinical studies can assess the reagent's performance and accuracy, and provide support for its registration and marketing. Through research and evaluation, it can ensure that new products meet clinical needs and have stability and reliability.
2. Application of non-clinical studies
Non-clinical studies can ensure the accuracy and reliability of reagents in actual use by validating and comparing their detection parameters. This helps medical institutions to select appropriate reagents and improve the accuracy of diagnostic results, widely used in the research of new drugs, is a continuous improvement process.
