Two new statistical approaches to assess the validity of the transfer of a LC-UV method for the determination of fenofibrate and fenofibric acid were investigated and compared to the conventional approaches generally used in this domain. These new approaches, namely the Tolerance Interval and the Risk approaches, are based on the simultaneous evaluation of the systematic (or trueness) and random (or precision) errors of the transfer into a single criterion called total error (or accuracy). The results of the transfer showed that only the total error based approaches fulfilled the objective of an analytical method transfer, i.e. to give guarantees that each future measurement made by the receiving laboratory will be close enough to the true value of the analyte in the sample. Furthermore the Risk approach was the most powerful one and allowed the estimation of the risk to have future measurements out of specification in the receiving laboratory, therefore being a risk management tool.

This article presents the validation results of a chiral liquid chromatographic (LC method previously developed for the quantitative determination of R-timolol in S-timoloi maleate samples. A novel validation strategy based on the accuracy profiles was used to select the most appropriate regression model, to assess the method accuracy within well defined acceptance limits and to determine the limits of quantitation as well as the concentration range. The validation phase was completed by the investigation of the risk profiles of various acceptable regression models in order to ensure the risk of obtaining the future measurements outside the acceptance limits fixed a priori. On the other hand, the present paper also shows how data used in this validation approach can be used to estimate the measurement uncertainty. The uncertainty derived from P-expectation tolerance interval (sigma-(2)(Tol)), which is equal to the uncertainty of measurements as well as the expanded uncertainty (U-x) using a coverage factor k = 2 was estimated. The uncertainty estimates obtained from validation data were finally compared with those obtained from interlaboratory and robustness studies. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. [less ▲]

In order to achieve the harmonization of validation strategies, the interpretation of several validation criteria is proposed. Furthermore, a simple and visual decision tool to assess the validity of an analytical procedure is described: the accuracy profile based on the estimation of the total error of the measurements. This profile build with beta-expectation tolerance intervals can also compute with efficiency the uncertainty related to the results of a laboratory, which is an essential parameter for the accreditation of laboratories under ISO 17025.

Three different approaches for the estimation of uncertainty measurements using the same analytical method were compared, namely validation, robustness and inter-laboratory studies. The uncertainty obtained with the robustness study! predicted well the uncertainty of the inter-laboratory study. On the other hand, the uncertainty estimation obtained with the validation study is lower than those obtained with the two other approaches but is still acceptable as long as the analytical method will be used in a single laboratory.

Analyses of statistical variance were applied to evaluate the precision and practicality of a CD-based NACE assay for R-timolol after enantiomeric separation of R- and S-timolol. Data were collected in an interlaboratory study by 11 participating laboratories located in Europe and North America. General qualitative method performance was examined using suitability descriptors (i.e. resolution, selectivity, migration times and S/N), while precision was determined by quantification of variances in the determination of R-timolol at four different impurity levels in S-timolol maleate samples. The interlaboratory trials were designed in accordance with the ISO guideline 5725-2. This allowed estimating for each sample, the different variances, i.e. between-laboratory (s2(Laboratories)), between-day (s2(Days)) and between-replicate (s2(Replicates)). The variances of repeatability (s2r) and reproducibility (s2R) were then calculated. The estimated uncertainty, derived from the precision estimates, seems to be concentration-dependent above a given threshold. This example of R-timolol illustrates how a laboratory can evaluate uncertainty in general. [less ▲]
