Valid Analytical Methods And Procedures

Valid Analytical Methods and Procedures

The Analytical Methods Committee of the Royal Society of Chemistry has for many years been involved in national and international efforts to establish a comprehensive framework for achieving appropriate quality in chemical measurement. This handbook attempts to select or define robust procedures that ensure the best use of resources and enable laboratories to generate consistent, reliable data. Written in concise, easy-to-read language and illustrated with worked examples, it is a guide to current best practice and establishes a control framework for the development and validation of laboratory-based analytical methods. Topics include samples and sampling, method selection, equipment calibration and qualification, method development and validation, evaluation of data and statistical approaches for method performance and comparison. Valid Analytical Methods and Procedures will be welcomed by many organisations throughout the world who are required to prove that the validity of their analytical results can be established beyond reasonable doubt.

Statistical Analysis Methods for Chemists

Many forms of chemical experimentation generate data needing analysis and interpretation in respect of the goals of the experiment and also the chemical factors which may influence the outcome. Statistical data analysis techniques provide the tools which enable a chemist to assess the information obtained from experiments. Statistical Analysis Methods for Chemists: A Software-based Approach aims to give a broad introduction to practical data analysis, and provides comprehensive coverage of basic statistical principles and reasoning. With practical examples, and integration of software output as the basis of data analysis, this useful book gives unique coverage of the statistical skills and techniques required in modern chemical experimentation. It will prove invaluable to students and researchers alike. Software update information is available from W Gardiner at [email protected] or fax +44 (0)141 331 3608. Please accompany requests for information with details of the software version to be used.
