2 2016/2-BS Copyright (c) 2017 UNODC INTERNATIONAL QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAMME (IQAP) INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATIVE EXERCISES (ICE) Introduction An important element of the UNODC International Quality Assurance Programme (IQAP) is the implementation of the International Collaborative Exercises (ICE). The exercises allow laboratories, from both developing and developed countries, to continuously monitor their performance in testing on a truly global scale. This report provides information on analytical results of laboratories participating in the Seized Materials (SM) group. In order to maintain confidentiality, the participating laboratories have been assigned random “Web Codes”, which change every round. The analytical results returned by laboratories participating in ICE are evaluated by UNODC and a confidential report is provided to each laboratory on its own performance. The overall analytical results are reviewed by the UNODC’s International Panel of Forensic Experts which oversees the implementation of these exercises, and offers guidance and support in addressing relevant quality issues. The exercises provide an overview of the performance and capacity of participating laboratories and enable UNODC to tailor technical support in the laboratory sector for greatest impact. The ICE programme is a UNODC mandated activity and is implemented through regular budget funds and through the UNODC Global Scientific and Forensic Programme – Support Project (GLOU54), which operationalizes the forensic aspects of the UNODC Thematic Programme on Research, Trend Analysis and Forensics" Comments from the International Panel of Forensic Experts

Participation of Laboratories

In the 2016/2 round of the ICE programme, results were submitted within both the Seized Materials (SM) and Biological Specimens (BS) test groups by 225 laboratories in 73 countries. Within the SM test group, there were 181 participating laboratories from 67 countries and within the BS test group, results were submitted by 89 laboratories from 44 countries.1

Qualitative Analysis

The analytical techniques most commonly used for screening of test samples in the BS test group were enzyme immunoassays (55% of participants), while GC-MS (81%) was the most commonly used technique for identification/confirmation of the components in the test samples. The results for the qualitative identification of the sample components in the BS test group, the number of false positive/negative results and the analyses not performed are shown in the table 1.

Laboratories reporting false positive or false negative results should investigate the reasons for this and corrective actions should be taken in order to continuously improve performance. ICE participants are reminded that test samples can contain any of the substances in the ICE menu and as such if methods are available, all substances should be considered.

Quantitative Analysis

The test samples in the BS group for the 2016/2 round of ICE contained a total of six components and 39 (44%) of participating laboratories performed quantification. Of these laboratories, it is encouraging to note that 92% of laboratories quantified at least two components and 33% performed quantification of all components present. GC-MS was used by 58% of participants for quantification, followed by LC/MS(/MS), which was used by 45% of participants. Z-scores obtained by participants in quantification are shown in the table below (percentage + no. of labs indicated).

Table 2. Quantitative performance of participants in the 2016/2 round of ICE.

According to the recommendations in ISO 13528:2005, an unsatisfactory z-score is considered to give an action signal and a questionable z-score is considered to give a warning signal. A single action signal or warning signals in two successive rounds shall be taken that an anomaly has occurred that requires investigation. Participants with z-scores outside acceptable limits should review their quantification procedures.

In the 2016/1 round of ICE, seven laboratories obtained questionable z-scores with 2 ≤ |z| < 3. Six of these laboratories participated and performed quantification in the 2016/2 round with five laboratories obtaining satisfactory z-scores in all of their quantitative analysis, while one laboratory obtainine a questionable z- score in its analysis.

Seven laboratories obtained unsatisfactory z-scores in ICE 2016/1 with |z| ≥ 3. Of these laboratories, six participated in ICE 2016/2 and performed quantification, with all improving their performance to obtain satisfactory z-scores in at least one sample. Two of these laboratories also obtained unsatisfactory z-scores and three obtained questionable z-scores.

Laboratories that need to perform quantitation routinely are encouraged to participate regularly in external proficiency testing or collaborative exercises such as the ICE programme. This will enable laboratories to assess the quality of their quantitative methods through the z-score values obtained. Laboratories reporting false positive or false negative results should investigate the root causes and corrective actions taken promptly in order to continuously improve performance. Participation in the ICE programme also helps in monitoring the effect of corrective actions. UNODC would like to acknowledge the valuable contribution of the Chemical Metrology Laboratory of the Health Sciences Authority, Singapore, for the provision of specific software used for the quantitative statistical calculations in the ICE programme.

z‐scores can be interpreted by participants in line with ISO 13528:2005, secion 7.4.2 and ISO/IEC guide43‐1:1997(E) as follows: IzI < 2 = satisfactory 2 ≤ IzI ≤ 3 = questionable IzI > 3 = unsatisfactory According to the recommendations in ISO 13528:2005, an unsatisfactory z‐score is considered to give an action signal and a questionable z‐score is considered to give a warning signal. A single action signal or warning signal in two successive rounds shall be taken that an anomaly has occured that requires inverstigation.
