ABSTRACT
This article presents a model to calculate the uncertainty associated with an analytical result based on the validation of the analysis procedure. This calculation model is proposed as an alternative to commonly used bottom-up and top-down methods. This proposal is very advantageous as the validation of the procedures and the estimation of the uncertainty of the measurement are part of the technical requirements needed in order to obtain the ISO 17025:2005 accreditation. This model has been applied to the determination of chloride by liquid chromatography in lixiviates and in the determination of palmitic acid and stearic acid by gas chromatography in magnesium stearate samples.
