08097 IUPAC Gold Book - procedure validation 10.1351/goldbook.08097 08097 current 1 Process of defining an analytical requirement and confirming that the procedure under consideration has capabilities consistent with that requirement. Inherent in procedure validation is the need to evaluate performance characteristics of a measurement procedure. The corresponding term in ISO 15189 is "validation of examination procedures". In ISO/IEC 17025, the term "method" is used as a synonym for measurement procedure. Procedure validation is either done in a single laboratory or in the framework of an interlaboratory comparison. capabilities https://goldbook.iupac.org//terms/view/08061 interlaboratory comparison https://goldbook.iupac.org//terms/view/08081 measurement procedure https://goldbook.iupac.org//terms/view/08028 performance characteristics of a measurement procedure https://goldbook.iupac.org//terms/view/08094 requirement https://goldbook.iupac.org//terms/view/08122 PAC, 2021, 93, 997.
