The network of laboratory sciences in Germany
The German Society for Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (DGKL), the Reference Institute for Bioanalytics (RfB) and the Foundation for Pathobiochemistry and Molecular Diagnostics (SPMD) together form a strong scientific network for the promotion of quality, research and standardisation in laboratory medicine.
Three partners, one common task
| Institution | Task | Contribution to laboratory quality |
| DGKL | Scientific society | Promotion of research, further education and specialist groups |
| RfB | Reference institute and EQA-Scheme provider | Ensuring analytical accuracy and international comparability |
| SPMD | Foundation of the DGKL | Promotion of research and young talent in pathobiochemistry and molecular diagnostics |
This close collaboration ensures that clinical laboratory analyses are carried out at a high scientific and methodological level.
Aim of the cooperation
Together, the DGKL, RfB and SPMD ensure that laboratory results are precise, traceable and interoperable – the basis for reliable diagnoses in modern medicine.
