Conclusions • Method developers should be encouraged that statistically significant  findings in this experiment are not indicative of a faulty method, and  the discovery of significance is not a roadblock to successful method  validation.  • Success of this experiment is not conditional on a conclusion of “no  significant differences were observed.” • Any findings at this stage will be used to modify method kit  instructions, emphasize areas of caution, or even possibly to widen  specific parameter options.
