  2. Laboratory quality control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboratory_quality_control

    Laboratory quality control is designed to detect, reduce, and correct deficiencies in a laboratory's internal analytical process prior to the release of patient results, in order to improve the quality of the results reported by the laboratory. Quality control (QC) is a measure of precision, or how well the measurement system reproduces the ...

  3. Experimental uncertainty analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experimental_uncertainty...

    Experimental uncertainty analysis is a technique that analyses a derived quantity, based on the uncertainties in the experimentally measured quantities that are used in some form of mathematical relationship ("model") to calculate that derived quantity. The model used to convert the measurements into the derived quantity is usually based on ...

  4. Error analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_analysis_(mathematics)

    The analysis of errors computed using the global positioning system is important for understanding how GPS works, and for knowing what magnitude errors should be expected. The Global Positioning System makes corrections for receiver clock errors and other effects but there are still residual errors which are not corrected.

  5. Analytical quality control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_quality_control

    Analytical quality control. Analytical quality control ( AQC) refers to all those processes and procedures designed to ensure that the results of laboratory analysis are consistent, comparable, accurate and within specified limits of precision. [1] Constituents submitted to the analytical laboratory must be accurately described to avoid faulty ...

  6. Uncertainty analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_analysis

    Uncertainty analysis. Uncertainty analysis investigates the uncertainty of variables that are used in decision-making problems in which observations and models represent the knowledge base. In other words, uncertainty analysis aims to make a technical contribution to decision-making through the quantification of uncertainties in the relevant ...

  7. Calibration curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration_curve

    A calibration curve is one approach to the problem of instrument calibration; other standard approaches may mix the standard into the unknown, giving an internal standard. The calibration curve is a plot of how the instrumental response, the so-called analytical signal, changes with the concentration of the analyte (the substance to be measured).

  8. Analytical chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_chemistry

    Chemistry. Analytical chemistry studies and uses instruments and methods to separate, identify, and quantify matter. [1] In practice, separation, identification or quantification may constitute the entire analysis or be combined with another method. Separation isolates analytes.

  9. Verification and validation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verification_and_validation

    Overview Verification. Verification is intended to check that a product, service, or system meets a set of design specifications. In the development phase, verification procedures involve performing special tests to model or simulate a portion, or the entirety, of a product, service, or system, then performing a review or analysis of the modeling results.
