What Challenges Are Involved in Sample Collection?
Sample collection in toxicology can be challenging due to various factors:
Degradation: Biological samples can degrade quickly, impacting the accuracy of the analysis. Contamination: External contaminants can interfere with the assay results, leading to false positives or negatives. Volume: Obtaining sufficient sample volume is critical for accurate testing, and this can be challenging in certain situations such as pediatric cases.
