The work of preparing International Standard

13、s is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take

14、part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In part

15、icular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives). Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of

ISO 2015 All rights reserved vPD ISO GUIDE 33:2015ISO GUIDE 33:2015(E) Introduction The aim of this Guide is to provide general recommendations on the use of RMs. These recommendations are exemplified by real-world examples, which to some degree al

20、so reflect the level of complexity associated with RMs. This level of detail is deemed to be useful for anyone who has a responsibility in the quality management in laboratories, such as drafters, reviewers, managers, and assessors of procedures, working instructions, standard operating procedures a

21、nd the like. The main applications of reference materials are calibration, establishing traceability, method validation, assigning values to other materials, and quality control.vi ISO 2015 All rights reservedPD ISO GUIDE 33:2015Reference materials Good practice in using reference materials 1 Scope

22、1.1 This Guide describes good practice in using reference materials (RMs), and certified reference materials (CRMs) in particular, in measurement processes. These uses include the assessment of precision and trueness of measurement methods, quality control, assigning values to materials, calibration

23、, and the establishment of conventional scales. This Guide also relates key characteristics of various types of RMs to the different applications. 1.2 For CRMs, the metrological traceability of the property values to international scales or other measurement standards has been established. For RMs n

24、ot being CRMs, this kind of traceability of property values has often not been established. Nevertheless, these RMs can still be used for assessing parts of measurement procedures, including evaluating various levels of precision 1.3 Mainstream applications of RM include precision control (Clause 8)

25、, bias assessment (Clause 9), calibration (Clause 10), preparation of calibration RMs (Clause 11) and maintaining conventional scales (Clause 12). NOTE Not all types of RMs can be used for all indicated purposes. 1.4 The preparation of RMs for calibration is also part of the scope of ISO Guides 34 1

26、and 35 2 . The treatment in this Guide is limited to the fundamentals of small-scale preparation of RMs and the value assignment, as used by laboratories to calibrate their equipment. Larger scale production of such RMs, with the possible aim of distribution is beyond the scope of this Guide. This t

27、ype of activity is covered in ISO Guides 34 1and 35 2 . 1.5 The development of working standards, as used in, e.g. natural gas analysis, clinical chemistry, and the pharmaceutical industry is not covered in this Guide.

32、 a measurement process Note 1 to entry: RM is a generic term. Note 2 to entry: Properties can be quantitative or qualitative, e.g. identity of substances or species. Note 3 to entry: Uses may include the calibration of a measurement system, assessment of a measurement procedure, assigning values to

33、other materials, and quality control. Note 4 to entry: ISO/IEC Guide 99:2007, has an analogous definition (5.13), but restricts the term “measurement” to apply to quantitative values. However, Note 3 of ISO/IEC Guide 99:2007, 5.13 (VIM), specifically includes qualitative properties, called “nominal

34、properties”.

Uncertainties for such attributes may be expressed as probabilities or levels of confidence Note 2 to entry: Metrologically va

43、 ISO 2015 All rights reserved 3PD ISO GUIDE 33:2015ISO GUIDE 33:2015(E) 5.1 A measurand is specified in such a way that there exists a unique, but unknowable, true value. 5.2 All statistical methods used in this Guide are based on the following assumptions. a) The certified value is the best estimat

44、e of the true value of the property of the CRM. b) All variation, be it associated with the material (i.e. homogeneity) or the measurement process, is random and follows a normal probability distribution. The values of probabilities stated in this Guide assume normality. The probability may be diffe

45、rent if there is deviation from normality. 5.3 The concept of “certified reference material” (CRM) as used in this Guide also includes RMs with property values that are accompanied by the statements of metrological traceability or measurement uncertainty. These property values are assumed to be obta

46、ined through characterization as described in ISO Guides 34 1and 35 2 . 5.4 Where the term RM is used in this Guide, it means that any RM can be used for the purpose described. The use of a CRM is an option, but usually not the most economical one. In practice, in most cases an RM will be used that

47、comes without property values, uncertainties and a traceability statement. 5.5 Values, given as “indicative”, “informative”, “for information” or otherwise identified as not being covered by the statements of metrological traceability or measurement uncertainty, are considered to be unfit for use in

48、 metrological applications requiring a value assigned to the measurand, such as, calibration, or the assignment of values to other materials. These values are however useful to verify whether an RM is suitable for precision control, or other applications that do not require a property value. 5.6 Thr

49、oughout this Guide, the law of propagation of uncertainty is used. Other methods of propagating uncertainties can be applied as well, and in some cases such alternative methods are required by the circumstances of the application. Further guidance on these matters is given in the GUM and its supplements. 6 RMs and their role in measurement 6.1 Common applications of RMs 6.1.1 RMs, and CRMs in particular, are widely used for the following purposes: Calibration of equipment or a measureme
