Through its Committee on Laboratory Standards and Practices, the APHA developed clinical laboratory books, such as Diagnostic Procedures for Bacterial, Mycotic, and Rickettsial Diseases. In 1971, CLASP determined that a comprehensive book on quality assurance would be useful for laboratory personnel faced with new CLIA guidelines.
The National Credentialing Agency for Laboratory Personnel (NCA) was a professional association for medical laboratory professionals.

In 2007 the "Association of Clinical Scientists in Immunology" merged with the ACB. The membership expanded in 2010 with the merger with the "Association of Clinical Microbiologists". The broader nature of the membership contributed to its renaming as ACB in 2013. [3] The name was abbreviated to the Association for Laboratory Medicine in 2024. [4]
The output of the scientific working groups is scientific papers and presentations which contribute to the science of laboratory medicine internationally; a list of publications can be found on the EFLM web-site (link below). Typically publications are peer-reviewed and published in the journal Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine.
