peer agreement (net): +1Assay Explanation: I would always use 'assay' in the context of product licence applications in Europe. The 2nd reference is a document from EMEA (The European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products) about terminology and contains a definition of 'assay'. The first is a UK medical glossary also containing a definition. Reference: http://cancerweb.ncl.ac.uk/cgi-bin/omd?assay Reference: http://www.emea.eu.int/pdfs/human/ich/038195en.pdf |

Maybe this fits Cheers |
