What to validate

When a standard or official method indicates repeatability and accuracy, the laboratory is required to verify that, under repeatability conditions, the performance of the laboratory is compatible with those indicated.

Internal test method
An internal test methodit is developed by the laboratory or adopted by a laboratory based on knowledge available in scientific literature and / or practical experience. The internal method can be either a method developed by the laboratory or a normalized or non-standardized method which has been substantially modified due to particular laboratory requirements.
The alternative method is an analytical method which determines or estimates, for a product category, the same analytic in an equivalent way to the corresponding reference method. The alternative method has characteristics suited to the needs of the users, such as the speed of analysis and / or response, the ease of execution and / or automation, the reduction of costs.
