COMMISSION ON NOMENCLATURE, PROPERTIES,
AND UNITS (VII.C.1)
Number: 710/25/95 > reinitiated as # 2001-068-1-700
Title: Nomenclature, Properties and Units in
Clinical Molecular Biology (revised title)
Coordinator(s): P.
Soares de Araujo
Objective:
In the field of Clinical Molecular Biology different laboratories
use different reporting conventions, with a consequent risk of misunderstanding
by users of the service. There is a need for a standard systematic
way of reporting the results of observations, which should as far
as possible follow the principles of nomenclature already established
in other clinical sciences.
Progress:
A 3rd version of the manuscript "Properties and Units in Clinical
Molecular Biology" was fully revised during the Berlin meeting (Aug
99). As a proposal accepted during the meeting it was reallocated
as part XVIII of Project 710/18/87
- Properties and Units in the Clinical Laboratory Sciences, and
it is now with Prof. Dr. Henrik Olesen who will do the last revision
and attribute the NPU codes for the properties listed. The final
report should be ready for publication by the next meeting of IUPAC-IFCC
CNPU.
