Dear all
This UKAS article was written to tighten up forensic toxicology, but as one of my colleagues pointed out yesterday, it is worded such that it affects any lab that measures "drugs" (so digoxin, TDM, lithium ….etc)...hence we may all need to feed back to UKAS to request an improvement in wording ...or all have to work with "forensic" standards for all our drug testing
The responses have to be in by end of April
