Koglin, E. AND L. Williams. TESTING, PERFORMANCE VALIDATION AND QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL OF FIELD-PORTABLE INSTRUMENTATION. Trends in Analytical Chemistry 13(7):294-299, (1994).

Description:

New technologies for field-portable monitoring instruments often have a long lead time in development and authorization. Some obstacles to the acceptance of these pilot technologies include concern about liabilities, reluctance to take risks on new technologies, and uncertainty about the reliability, costs, and validity of new technologies. A proposal for instrument testing and performance evaluations involves a technology demonstration following a rigorous experimental and data management strategy. Quality assurance is incorporated at the field level.
