Stability: Recommendation for Best Practices and Harmonization from the Global Bioanalysis Consortium Harmonization Team

Journal Title: The AAPS Journal - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 3

Abstract

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of stability-related aspects of quantitative bioanalysis and recommends science-based best practices, covering small and large molecules as well as chromatographic and ligand-binding assays. It addresses general aspects, such as the use of reference values, transferability and treatment of failing stability results, and also focuses on specific types of stability assessment: bench-top, freeze/thaw and long-term frozen stability, stock stability, extract stability, stability in whole blood, tissue and urine, and stability of endogenous analytes, in special matrix types and in incurred samples.
