On behalf of UILI ILP committee we have the pleasure to send you our final call to participate in the UILI Interlaboratory Practice Program, a global comparative study of laboratory analysis.
Challenge your lab in a true global laboratory comparative study
Our 2017 and 2018 Interlaboratory Practice Program will focus on 8 different materials. The methods of testing for each lab are free.
Final call for participants
Register before July 15th 2017. As of today 117 laboratories did already register for our 14th UILI ILP. To give more laboratories the possibility to participate in our true global inter laboratory comparison the ILP committee has decided to extend the possibility to sign up for the 15th, 16th and 17th UILI ILP. See the attachment for more information about the Interlaboratory Practice or download ILP Program 2017-2018. You can subscibe on the Interlaboratory Practice by fill in this form or e-mail to
secretariat@uili.org or subscribe online. For each scheme a detailed instruction sheet will become available.

Samples
The test samples will be distributed later.
You will then have until End-August the time to perform your analysis and report back to us.
Previous studies
You can have an overview on our ILP including the reports of the previous rounds on the website of the Union Internationales Laboratoires Independants.
ILP web application
The reports of these round robin tests will become available by End-December on our website.
You can reach our ILP website at:
http://ilp.uili.org
.
If you don't have your login details available use the password forgotten button. Your login details will then be send by e-mail.
Method of participation
Please send an e-mail to
secretariat@uili.org
to let us know if you would like to participate in one of the ILP programs and to which address and contact we may send the test samples.
You can also register at our website. Please subscribe for the 2017 program before July 15th 2017. Subscriptions for 2017 should be submitted before July 2018.
We hope that our ILP will meet your expectations and will make an important contribution to the international comparability of analytical results.
Sincerely yours,
On behalf of the UILI Governing Board and the UILI ILP committee
Dr. Toru Matsumura
Chairman ILP Committee
