In this article, AHN Biotechnologies explains how to avoid common pipetting errors for better lab results.

My probably bad, but here goes Suppose a measuring device has a constant systematic error: it always reads 10 units low.

Accurate results are free from systematic and random errors and accuracy also involves trueness and precision. Precision is defined as the closeness of agreement between individual values.

Researchers at the University of Quebec and McGill in Canada have tested three statistical procedures to assess the presence of systematic error in experimental HTS data.

While previous sections of this report have focused on the kinds of systematic biases that may be the largest worry when it comes to public opinion polls, ...
