“…Thus, estimating the measurement uncertainty for each matrix studied is important to ensure the quality of the analytical results and to demonstrate the suitability of the analytical method (Boleda, Galceran, & Ventura, 2013). Different procedures have been applied to calculate the measurement uncertainty associated with analyses of antibiotics (Borecka et al, 2013), chlorides and fatty acids (Quintela, B aguena, Gotor, Blanco, & Broto, 2012), ochratoxin A (Fernandes, Barros, & Câmara, 2013), pharmaceuticals (Boleda et al, 2013), pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (Aslan-Sungur, Gaga, & Yenisoy-Karakas, 2014;Kmell ar et al, 2008;Planas, Puig, Rivera, & Caixach, 2006) in environmental and food matrices. However, some of these models require certified reference material, which is not always available.…”
