In order to achieve the harmonization of validation strategies, the interpretation of several validation criteria is proposed. Furthermore, a simple and visual decision tool to assess the validity of an analytical procedure is described: the accuracy profile based on the estimation of the total error of the measurements. This profile build with beta-expectation tolerance intervals can also compute with efficiency the uncertainty related to the results of a laboratory, which is an essential parameter for the accreditation of laboratories under ISO 17025.
