Report Header Expla' on s
Batch A distinct set of samples analyzed at a specific time
Found Value of the QC Type of interest
Limit Upper limit for RPD, in %.
Lower Lower Recovery Limit, in % (except for LCSS, mg/Kg)
MDL Method Detection Limit. Same as Minimum Reporting Limit. Allows for instrument and annual fluctuations.
PCN/SCN A number assigned to reagents/standards to trace to the manufacturer's certificate of analysis
PQL Practical Quantitation Limit, typically 5 times the MDL.
OC True Value of the Control Sample or the amount added to the Spike
Rec Amount of the true value or spike added recovered, in % (except for LCSS, mg/Kg)
RPD Relative Percent Difference, calculation used for Duplicate QC Types
Upper Upper Recovery Limit, in % (except for LCSS, mg/Kg)
Sample Value of the Sample of interest

Control Samples Verifies the accuracy of the method, including the prep procedure.
Duplicates Verifies the precision of the instrument and/or method:
Spikes/Fort ified Matrix Determines sample matrix interferences, if any.
Standard Verifies the validity of the calibration.
