Terminology in Analytical Measurement: Introduction to VIM 3

A new guide has been produced by members of the Eurachem Education and Training Working Group and others co-opted to the Project group for this task.
This Eurachem Guide discusses a selection of the concepts in VIM 3 (International Vocabulary of Metrology), focusing on those most likely to be encountered in analytical laboratories. It aims to cover chemical, biological and clinical measurements and gives examples over and above those in the notes accompanying the definitions in VIM 3 .

The guide is intended for laboratory staff, accreditation bodies, for those commissioning measurements and for those using measurement results. Lecturers and trainers may also find this guide useful when teaching aspects of metrology.
