Description

  • Type

    Short course

Modern analytical equipment is heavily automated and the data presented may be heavily processed. Measurement is not an error-free process, so an understanding of the measurement method and its limitations can help determine whether the results obtained are within expectations: How did the reading get there? What does it mean? Why might it be wrong? What can you do about it?
