5 6 1. Purpose: AOAC SMPRs describe the minimum recommended performance characteristics 7 to be used during the evaluation of a method. The evaluation may be an on-site 8 verification, a single-laboratory validation, or a multi-site collaborative study. SMPRs are 9 written and adopted by AOAC Stakeholder Panels composed of representatives from the 10 industry, regulatory organizations, contract laboratories, test kit manufacturers, and 11 academic institutions. AOAC SMPRs are used by AOAC Expert Review Panels in their 12 evaluation of validation study data for method being considered for Performance Tested 13 Methods or AOAC Official Methods of Analysis , and can be used as acceptance criteria for 14 verification at user laboratories.
