Internal quality control (IQC) samples may be incorporated in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) routinely for detection of errors occurring due to change in environmental conditions, test system, or operator performance. We have described methodology for preparation of IQC samples, monitoring of results using Levey-Jennings (LJ) charts and their interpretation. We have also described our experience of quality control in ELISA using IQC samples, identification of errors and corrections applied.
