Technical Information
Acceptance Limits & Regression Constants
We are Working for You...
Your Success is Our Number One Goal.

If you have ever failed a PT sample and could not understand why, it just might be the method EPA requires the PT providers to use to evaluate the samples. For most WP analytes and many WS analytes, the acceptance limits are based upon values calculated according to an EPA protocol. This method requires us to calculate an estimated Mean and an estimated Standard Deviation. Then calculate a limit as the Mean plus or minus three deviations for WP or the Mean plus or minus two deviations for WS. The Means and Deviations are calculated from regression constants supplied by the US EPA. How good the final limits are depends in large part on how good the regression constants are compared to the real world.

View the complete article and learn how the regressions are calculated and what you can do to get them changed. [http://www.apgqa.com/newsletters/2_2003_regressions.asp]
