The initial reporter received questionable alp2 (alp ifcc gen.2) results from one patient sample tested on the cobas integra 400 plus and an unspecified cobas pro analyzer.The reporter stated they were cross-checking results from the cobas pro with the reported cobas integra.They found result repeatability issues when using the tube, but noted the results were precise when "eppendorf" tubes were used.The patient sample was run 5 times on the cobas integra.The results are: 157.07 u/l, 255.96 u/l, 151.79 u/l, 117.00 u/l, 93.91 u/l.The questionable results were not reported outside the laboratory as they did not match clinically.
