Three batches of MYO (CLIA) have been manufactured in the reagent plant, and stored at 2~8 ℃ from the start (Time 0) to the 15th month (after
claimed shelf life). Real-time stability study has evaluated various performance parameters, such as appearance, fill volume, LoB, LoD, accuracy,
linearity range, repeatability, batch-to-batch variation, accuracy of value assignment of calibrators, within-vial homogeneity, and between-vial
MYO (CLIA) (batch No. 20180401) were shipped to Shanghai, Lanzhou, and Harbin through cold chain transportation respectively. Keep
