There was no significant difference between serum cPLI or fPLI concentrations before or after shipping at the GI Lab (pvalues for Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank tests: 0.593 and 0.672, respectively). In contrast, there was a significant difference between serum cPLI or fPLI concentrations between the newly released assays and the previously established assays (pvalues < 0.0001 and 0.0241, respectively). While there was a significant correlation between the newly released and the previously released assays (Spearman r: 0.775 and 0.7386, respectively), this correlation was very poor for assays that supposedly measure the same analyte. Also, the interpretation for serum cPLI and fPLI results between the previously developed assays and the new assays did not agree for many of the samples. Finally, both newly developed assays showed some erratic results.
