Osmo1® Single-Sample Micro-Osmometer User Guide
Interpreting results
Data generated using Advanced Instruments standards and reference solutions may be analyzed according to the accuracy
and precision specifications of the instrument (see Appendix B, “Performance characteristics”).
Laboratories may choose to employ one, two, or three standard deviations (SD) for accuracy based on what is relevant in
their laboratories. For normally distributed data, approximately 68% of the individual data values will fall within one
standard deviation of the mean, approximately 95% within two standard deviations, and approximately 99.7% within three
standard deviations.
