- Abstract:
- The uncertainty estimation procedures recommended in ISO-GUM are largely used by several laboratories and institutes. This work compares the ISOGUM approach and the Monte Carlo simulation method for the Cd concentration uncertainty (U) determination, using the A-5 example showed at EURACHEM Guide. The Monte Carlo simulation showed very similar results in comparison to the ISO-GUM approach. It can be concluded that both methods are applicable for the expanded uncertainty determination and provide reliable results.
