Repeatability refers to the results of independent 5 determination in triplicates obtained by analyzing a QC sample five times on the same day. Reproducibility refers to the results of independent 5 determinations in triplicates obtained by analyzing a QC sample five times on different days (once a day). Mean indicates the mean contents of biotin and cyanocobalamin in analytical quality sample, SD: standard deviation. Coefficient variation.
