Each FilmArray BioThreat-E test contains an internal control that ensures that all processes performed in the test pouch (from nucleic acid extraction, to reverse transcription, to amplification and detection) are occurring correctly. Should a laboratory require external positive control material for protocol verification or lot validation, for example, sources of this material are listed here. Positive clinical material may also be used, if available. Maine Molecular Quality Controls Inc. offers a set of synthetic DNA controls that are amplified by the BioThreat-E test.
