34、11. Precision and Bias311.1 An interlaboratory test was conducted in 2005 in which13 laboratories participated using four instrument models fromtwo manufacturers.11.2 Precision:11.2.1 Within laboratory variability may be described usingthe repeatability value (r) obtained by multiplying the repeat-a

35、bility relative standard deviation by 2.8. The repeatabilityvalue estimates the 95 % confidence limit. That is, two resultsfrom the same laboratory should be considered suspect (at the95 % confidence level) if they differ by more than the repeat-ability value.11.2.2 The within laboratory repeatabili

36、ty relative standarddeviation for the measurement of slope (S) was found to be0.10 % with 48 degrees of experimental freedom.11.2.3 Between laboratory variability (R) may be describedusing the reproducibility value (R) by multiplying the repro-ducibility relative standard deviation by 2.8. The repro

37、ducibil-ity value estimates the 95 % confidence limit. That is, tworesults from different laboratories should be considered suspect(at the 95 % confidence level) if they differ by more than thereproducibility value.11.2.4 The between laboratory reproducibility relative stan-dard deviation for the me

38、asurement of slope (S) was found tobe 2.8 % with 48 degrees of experimental freedom11.3 BiasThis is a calibration document. Bias is defined inthis standard by the value of percent conformity (C) deter-mined.11.3.1 The mean value of conformance was found to be+0.12 %.NOTE 9This value has no predictiv
