Accuracy is the ability to be on target. What you are aiming at or for.\nPrecise is how repeatable you are at hitting the same spot.\nYou can be precise, but off target or not accurate. Like the marksman who is repeatably hitting the same spot, but because his guidance system is wrong he doesn't hit the center of the target.\n\nReliability is repeating an event and getting the same expected results. Eventually either a random chance variable come along which causes the results to be different. If the results are consistently different then there is an assignable cause which needs to be investigated.\n\nTolerance about an instrument is with everything taken in consideration, the accuracy can be measured. i.e. a Digital Volt Meter DVM can measure voltage at a +/-0.01V on the 0-10VDC scale. Another DVM can measure the same voltage at +/-0.001V. The later instrument has a higher or tighter tolerance capability. The user will determine which is required for his/her needs. The cost of this better DVM could be 2 - 5 times more.\n\nBias is known factors which will influence the instruments ability to read accurately.\nTemperature is something that all instruments are affected by and must be known how they perform.

This is a good question even for a statistician.\nThe problem is your set is small and I do not know what the deviation between samples is, however the repeatability and reproducibility information can bind the window \nthrough which the third value will fall through or perhaps even remain in.  \n\nLet me know.

Scope is the range.  What does it entail? \n\nDefining the limits, including what it is not is important in defining the scope.\n\nThis project's scope includes:\n\nbe specific.

A body of practices, procedures, and rules used by those who work in a discipline or engage in an inquiry; a set of working methods..\nFor reaserch paper... think about what will you do if you are going for research of something... and just write them down one by one steps.. i think if you could give me points may be i could set'em up for you.. but i think youcan do that... good luck

In a word: objectivity.\n\nScience is the sole discipline that relies entirely and exclusively on objectivity. Other methods utilise large degree of subjectivity. \n\nBasically what that means is that if I do something that is 'science' it has to be possible for anyone else to do exactly the same thing and get exactly the same results. The only thing that matters in science is what was seen or done, not who the scientist or observer was. And as a result the scientific method produces results that everybody has to agree on. Everybody may not agree on the conclusions drawn, but everybody is able to agree that the results were as described.\n\nIn contrast other methods depend largely on the observer. Two different psychologists can talk to the same person and each will say different things about his sanity. Two theologians will read the same passage and claim that it means two different things. Such disciplines are subjective. What is seen to exist depends entirely on who is looking at it.

Human sensory evaluation is much more accurate (e.g., 100 times for olive oil) than laboratory equipment for certain characteristics. Aroma and taste are very \ncomplex and cannot be determined in the laboratory.

I can do two - \n\nSystematic: inaccuracies which persist throughout the entire experiment as a result of methodology.\n\nRandom: statistical fluctuations in the measured data due to the precision limitations of the measurement device.\n\nI'll get back to ya on the other one...

variations matter greatly in interpreting data.  Something might seem like it is returning significantly different results than the control but stat evaluation may show that the variations are minimal at best

I think you are talking about a Lab Report. You start with a hypothesis followed by a objective, steps taken, notes, and a conclusion (say if your hypothesis was correct and if your objective was completed).

Validation is a process that consists of at least four distinct steps:\n\n1.   software validation, \n2.   hardware (instrumentation) validation/qualification, \n3.   method validation \n4.   system suitability \n\nThe process begins with validated software and a qualified system. Then a validated method using the qualified system can be developed. Finally it is all wrapped together, in a total validation, using system suitability. Each step is critical to the overall success of the process\n\nMETHOD VALIDATION should include: \nLinearity: the range of linearity is checked by injections of 5-6 concentrations of the reference standards (in triplicates) below and above the expected concentration of the \nsamples (20%-120%). The slope and intercept are determined. r >= 0.999, and the range of linearity (in conc. terms) is established. \n\nAccuracy is measured as the (amount measured)/(amount claimed) in the following procedures: \nIn drug formulations: a standard is added to the placebo (80%, 100%, 120%), and the recovery is measured \nRecovery from sample preparation procedures (such as dilution, extraction or filtration) should be established. \n\nSolution stability of the samples (A fresh sample is compared to one which was left in solution for the entire duration of the test procedure). \n\n Intermediate precision or ruggedness: 5 measurements of the first step of accuracy under two different occasions (two columns, or two operators). \n\nLimit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ): \nThe intercept from the linearity test (in section 5.a) can be used for LOQ measurements (intercept x 5 or 10). \nAnalysis of repeatability at the quantification limit, using both sample and reference standard. Concentrations that yield 10-15% RSD will be acceptable as LOQ concentrations. \n\n Robustness of the chromatographic method: variables in this test can be the following: column batch #, solvent strength in the mobile phase, temperature, flow rate, pH of the mobile phase, ionic strength in the mobile phase, sample diluent, \ninjection volume, wavelength of detection. The parameter measured: response, retention time, selectivity and/or resolution. \n\n=)
