TO CHECK OR PROVE THE VALIDITY OF
According to FDA
The goal of validation is to establish a documented
evidence which provides a high degree of
assuarance that a specific process will consistently
produce a product meeting its predetermined
specifications and quality attributes .

Specificity
The
It
is
the ability to measure unequivocally the
desired analyte in the presence of interference, such
as synthetic precursors, excipients, enantiomers,
and known (or likely) degradation products that may
be expected to be present in the sample matrix.
Precision
Precision is the degree of agreement among
individual results
It is expressed as the relative standard deviation
(RSD).
The measured standard deviation can be
subdivided into three categories: repeatability,
intermediate precision, and reproducibility.
3. Reproducibility:
Reproducibility as defined by ICH represents the precision obtained
between laboratories .
The objective is to verify that the method will provide the same
results in different laboratories.
The reproducibility of an analytical method is determined by analyzing
aliquots from homogeneous lots in different laboratories with different
analysts and by using operational and environmental conditions that
may differ from but are still within the specified parameters of the
method (inter laboratory tests) .

2. signal to noise ratio- For instrumental procedures that exhibit background noise, it is common
to compare measured signals from samples with known low concentrations of analyte with those of
the blank samples. The minimum concentration at which the analyte can reliably be detected is
established using an acceptable signal - to - noise ratio of 2 : 1 or 3 : 1.

Steps in Method
Validation
1. Develop a validation protocol or operating procedure for the
validation.
2. Define the application, purpose, and scope of the method.
3. Define the performance parameters and acceptance criteria.
4. Define validation experiments.
5. Verify relevant performance characteristics of equipment.
6. Qualify materials (e.g., standards and reagents).
7. Perform prevalidation experiments.
8. Adjust method parameters or/and acceptance criteria if
necessary.

How robust should the method be? For example, should the
method work at a specific room temperature or should it run
independently from room temperatures?
