Compendial Testing of compounds used in Proficiency Testing

CPQA assesses the quality and purity of compounds used in proficiency testing panels.

To access Compendial Testing, sign in to the Frontier Science portal and click CPQA Documentation.

Applications

AVR SOP Submission

Submit testing methods for review and approval. Approved methods can be selected for CPQA proficiency testing rounds.

To access the AVR SOP Submission System, sign in to the Frontier Science portal and click AVR SOP Submission Utility.

CPQA Panel Participation

For each round, confirm that samples were received in acceptable condition, and indicate which samples your laboratory will test and which method will be used.

To access the CPQA Panel Participation system, sign in to the Frontier Science portal and click CPQA Panel Participation.

DSS

Results for a testing round must be submitted with LDMS, if available. If your laboratory is not able to submit results through LDMS, DSS (The Data Submission System) can be used as an alternative.

To access DSS, sign in to the Frontier Science portal and click Data Submission System (DSS).

LDMS

LDMS is a laboratory information management system (LIMS) for managing collections of biological specimens. Results for a testing round must be submitted with LDMS, if available. If your laboratory is not able to submit results through LDMS, DSS (The Data Submission System) can be used as an alternative.

CPQA-specific LDMS documentation is accessible on the LDMS website, including a Q&A for PK test support in Web LDMS.
