We are pleased to announce that in 2026, we will be launching a new scheme, Lipids in Serum (LIS) which contains various lipid analytes relevant to the diagnosis of inborn errors of metabolism. This previously ran as a pilot scheme in 2024 and 2025. Several lipids will no longer be included in the Special Assays in Serum scheme (SAS) due to their inclusion in the LIS scheme. This change provides the opportunity to include additional new analytes in the SAS scheme in the future. For the list of analytes included in the LIS and SAS schemes in 2026, please refer to the 2026 catalogue, see below.
The ERNDIM EQA Scheme Catalogue gives information on all of the ERNDIM EQA schemes and also the prices of each scheme in Euro, GB pounds and US dollars. The 2026 catalogue can be downloaded here.
Brief information on the EQA schemes offered by ERNDIM in 2026 can be found on the EQA schemes page.
