Laboratory precision
Laboratory precision (English intermediate precision ) is a technical term from the field of analytical chemistry . Laboratory precision is the precision that results from repeated determination of the same sample within a laboratory, but when a parameter of the analytical process is consciously changed (e.g. different operators, different measuring devices, different days, different batches of reagents).
Laboratory precision is an important criterion in the qualification of analytical methods and measuring devices. The framework conditions for determining the laboratory precision are not as tightly set as for the repeatability , but stricter than for the comparative precision . Often the laboratory precision that varies from day to day is given, with which the determination is repeated on different days.
