The LOQ of the assay was validated as MR4.7 (0.002% international scale) by measuring six low-level specimens across 119 valid measurements using two lots of the kit across 3 testing days. All specimens satisfied the error criteria (SDMR ≤ 0.36), supporting a limit beyond (and, therefore, constrained by) the limit of detection of MR4.70.

LOQ, limit of quantitation; MR, molecular response.
