12. ACCURACY (BY RECOVERY):
12.1. Accuracy of an analytical method is the closeness of test results obtained by that method to the true value.
12.2. Accuracy may often be expressed as percent recovery, by the assay, of known added amount of analyte.
12.3. The accuracy of the method shall be determined by adding known amount of Ceftriaxone sodium for Injection
in the sample.
12.4. Prepare three samples in triplicate containing known amount of ceftriaxone sodium for Injection . add extra

14. PRECISION:
14.1. Precision of an analytical method is the degree of agreement among individual test results when method is
applied repeatedly to multiple sampling of a homogenous sample.
14.2. The precision of analytical method is usually expressed as standard deviation or relative standard deviation of a
series of measurement.
14.3. ICH documents recommended that repeatability should be assessed using a minimum of nine determinations
covering the specified range for the procedure i.e. three concentration and three replicate of each concentration
or using a minimum of 6 determination at 100% of the test concentration.
