Figures & data
Table I. Analytical goals specified by Belk and Sunderman 1946 [Citation7] and outcome of a survey by the Swedish EQAS Equalis (www.equalis.se, available in English). US values in g/dL, SE values in SI units. Glucose in the 1946 study was most likely “reducing substance”.
Figure 1. A) The bias of the measured quantity value of a Certified Reference Material (CRM) is adjusted to the assigned value giving B) the “best estimate” of the quantity value with an increased uncertainty. The “best estimate” of the quantity value coincides with the assigned value of the CRM after the correction. The best estimate will be within the coverage interval with a stated probability (p).
