Bibliography

States, for the field of air quality measurement procedures, the: - estimation of measurement uncertainty from actual or claimed values of all important performance characteristics of a method under stationary conditions; - assessment of whether or not specified values of these performance characteristics comply with the required quality of a measured value at a stated measurand value; - evaluation of the applicability of the measurement method based on laboratory performance and confirmatory field test; - establishment of requirements on dynamic behaviour of instruments.
