What is RIQAS?
RIQAS, the external quality assessment scheme from Randox Laboratories, is the world’s first clinical EQA scheme to gain UKAS accreditation. EQA schemes serve to stimulate and monitor improvements in inter-laboratory agreement to facilitate optimal patient care. RIQAS provides a first class inter laboratory comparison assessment service and is currently used by circa 5000 laboratories in 59 countries around the world.
Already ISO 13485 accredited, the quality management assessment system of RIQAS has been assessed by and meets the requirements of an internationally recognized quality assessment system.
RIQAS has been providing ‘Proficiency Testing Schemes’ for laboratories worldwide for over 14 years. Today RIQAS offers 9 programs with 166 analytes and prides itself in being a dynamic, user-led scheme, offering flexible program choice for laboratory medicine EQA. RIQAS recognizes that the needs of laboratories participating in EQA programs can vary significantly and therefore offers flexible program choice. Participating laboratories receive user-friendly, charted reports with rapid turn around times. Advice, assistance and support from a highly trained technical support team and independent advisory panel are also available.
Since the purpose of an EQA scheme is to assess a laboratory’s ability to accurately and correctly analyze patient samples, it is imperative that the EQA scheme itself is audited to ensure their procedures are of an acceptable standard. RIQAS can now strengthen the message that it is a first-class EQA provider with international acclaim!
What is 247 Registration?

Betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase (BHMT) is one of the two enzymes known to methylate homocysteine to produce methionine in the liver. This enzyme is a focus of great interest due to the role of homocysteine as a potential independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. BHMT is an oligomer composed of four identical subunits, that belong to the thiol-selenol methyltransferases family. The 3d structure shows the mechanism activating the thiol substrate which is common to the family. It also reveals the conformational changes produced during the enzymatic reaction and the structural requirements which are specific for the different functionality within the family. Count on Praxis Medica and Randox for all of your homocysteine and other substrate chemistry testing.
