Abstract
Routine applications of molecular biological techniques in microbiological diagnostics require an increased attention to the quality control of carried out these methods. The quality control of these methods consists of the internal control (positive and negative controls and control of inhibition of PCR) and external control.
Program QCMD (Quality Control for Molecular Diagnostics) or intrlaboratory control cycles organized by UK NEQAS can be used for external control of pathogens.
