Validation of phytoplankton assays is a crucial process to ensure that proposed analytical methods meet the highest standards of quality and reliability. Validation not only confirms the suitability of the method, but also ensures that the results are accurate, stable, reproducible and flexible according to what is expected to be identified or quantified. This process is essential to comply with the requirements established by ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and maintain the integrity of analytical data.

 

Our approach to validating phytoplankton assays involves the following key elements:

 

Accuracy: We ensure that the method is accurate, which means that the results are close to the true value. This involves properly calibrating equipment, using reliable reference standards, and minimizing systematic errors.

 

Precision: Precision is the ability of the method to produce results that are consistent and close to each other when applied repeatedly to the same material. We performed repeated analyzes to verify the accuracy of the method.

 

Stability: We evaluate the stability of the method over time, ensuring that it continues to provide reliable results across multiple occasions.

 

Reproducibility: We test the reproducibility of the method, that is, the ability of other laboratories or analysts to obtain similar results when using the same method and samples.

 

Our experts carry out a comprehensive validation process, carefully documenting each step of the process and providing solid experimental evidence to demonstrate the suitability of the method. Validation is essential to ensure that phytoplankton assay results are reliable and meet the specific needs of your customers and the standards of ISO/IEC 17025:2017.
