# Commission Decision of 12 August 2002 implementing Council Directive 96/23/EC concerning the performance of analytical methods and the interpretation of results (notified under document number C(2002) 3044) (Text with EEA relevance) (2002/657/EC), Division 3.1.2.2: Repeatability

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Prepare a set of samples of identical matrices, fortified with the analyte to yield concentrations equivalent to 1, 1,5 and 2 times the minimum required performance limit or 0,5, 1 and 1,5 times the permitted limit.
At each level the analysis should be performed with at least six replicates.
Analyse the samples.
Calculate the concentration detected in each sample.
Find the mean concentration, standard deviation and the coefficient of variation (%) of the fortified samples.
Repeat these steps on at least two other occasions.
Calculate the overall mean concentrations and CVs for the fortified samples.
