Remarks Infectious material, UN3373, biological substances category B. This program will be completed with currently circulating virus variants. Some of the samples can contain chemically inactivated avian influenza A viruses. Note for laboratories from non-EU countries: The shipment of sample materials for participation in this EQA scheme is subject to a release by the Federal Office of Economic Affairs and Export Control according to the EU Dual-Use Regulation (VO (EU) 2021/821) for sample recipients in non-EU countries.

The requirements of the RiliBÄK (Guidelines of the German Medical Association on quality assurance in medical laboratory testing / Bundesärztekammer) will be considered for the detection of the above-mentioned pathogens.
