Survey

In 2013 we conducted a survey among several Estonian laboratories about using and validating chromatographic methods. The main goal of the survey was to find out the difficulties different laboratories are facing in order to design VaLChrom software in a good way.  The most important difficulties in validating chromatographic methods are concerning uncertainty estimation and data processing. It has also been mentioned that deciding about the validation scope is complicated. The results of the survey show that there is a need for a helping validation software.
