Our new CAP checklist does not mention the use of RUO antibodies anymore. This was under the question using ASR antibodies in the past. I believe the requirement was that if we wanted to use an RUO antibody we had to have a disclaimer similar to the ASR disclaimer but we also had to have a statement stating that we had searched for an IVD or ASR antibody. Does anyone know if this is still the practice or am I missing something? I do know of course than when using either an ASR or RUO antibody we have to establish and verify the performance. Any thoughts about the RUO(s)?
