Types of errors in Pharmaceuticals

Types of errors in Pharmaceuticals

  1. Systematic errors: These are errors that occur consistently and are caused by a fault in the measuring system, such as an inaccurate or improperly calibrated instrument.
  2. Random errors: These are errors that occur randomly and are caused by environmental factors, such as changes in temperature, humidity, or air pressure.
  3. Sampling errors: These are errors that occur when the sample used for analysis is not representative of the entire population, leading to inaccurate results.
  4. Analytical errors: These are errors that occur during the actual analytical process, such as contamination of the sample, operator error, or incorrect calculations.
  5. Methodological errors: These are errors that occur due to flaws in the analytical method used, such as incomplete extraction of the analyte or interference from other substances.
  6. Data entry errors: These are errors that occur when data is entered into the computer system incorrectly, leading to inaccurate results.
  7. Human errors: These are errors that occur due to human error, such as misreading a measurement or forgetting to record a result.
  8. Instrument errors: These are errors that occur due to faults or malfunctions in the analytical instrument used for analysis.
