The pre-analytical stability of various biochemical analytes requires careful consideration, as it can lead to the release of erroneous laboratory results. There is currently significant variability in the literature regarding the pre-analytical stability of various analytes. The aim of this study was to determine the pre-analytical stability of 65 analytes in whole blood, serum and plasma using a standardized approach.
