Advanced Statistical Analysis Of Laboratory Data Method Development, Method Validation, Uncertainty, Calibration, SQC And Data Interpretation
Course Description
Quantitative chemical measurement has a degree of uncertainty linked to its results which is determined by the performance characteristics of the analytical method used. Measurement uncertainty has often been evaluated on the basis of repeatability and reproducibility of data, but the measurement uncertainty, as expressed in the "Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement" published by ISO in 1993, goes further and gives general rules for the evaluation of measurement uncertainty based on both statistical (Type A) and non-statistical (Type B) uncertainties. The course covers the bulk of the methods and techniques documented in the ISO guide and give a general principle to the calculation of measurement uncertainty in quantitative chemical analyses.

The course is designed for chemists, lab technicians, chemical engineers, instrument engineers and lab supervisors/managers.
