We have ongoing problems with the enzymatic bicarbonate method on our Roche platforms. It appears that after a period of time for the kit on-board, the test results climb 5 - 8 mmol/L. This can be remedied by a re-cal. I'm told that we are not alone with this issue. I'd be happy to learn your experience with this test, particularly if you have a solution,
Regards,
David
