The validation of laboratory instruments is the responsibility of the user s organization and not the suppliers of the instruments. The users can partner with the suppliers to facilitate installation and validation testing.

The Parenteral Drug Association (PDA) has developed a technical paper on the validation of laboratory data acquisition system [9]. 

This guide is concerned with establishing a control framework for the development and validation of laboratory-based analytical methods. Many of these methods will be employed in generating data that could have profound legal or commercial impacts. The validity of analytical results should be established beyond reasonable doubt.

Transferability of the results from this study to the Cape Cod natural gradient tracer test will provide information about the validity of laboratory experiments in providing information about onsite processes. Although actual values for some of the physical parameters determined in the laboratory may not apply to an aquifer because of scale differences between laboratory and field, conceptually realistic models such as the profile side-pore diffusion model may be able to simulate onsite transport conditions more accurately. 

Species variations that may seriously affect the validity of laboratory animal metabolism studies as predictive models for man are a problem without apparent solution. For proper evaluation of the toxicological significance of pesticides to man, metabolism...

As microbiological methods incorporate viable test microorganisms, predictability of the outcome is not always clear and subject to many environmental influences that may impact on a given response. Hence, it is of the utmost importance that parameters such as plant collection, validation of laboratory equipment, chemical analysis, and various intricacies of antimicrobial investigations be carefully defined.
