Abstract
A full-factorial experimental design (2^4) was performed to study the impact of the sampling and handling processes on the analysis of gasoline samples. Four independent variables were selected based on the most critical parameters to control during sampling. Vapor pressure determination and distillation curve were chosen as response variables, and the data collected were assessed by analysis of variance as a statistical approach. There were statistically significant differences related to the sample container’s material and the sample’s storage time in the laboratory before the analysis. Also, the measurement variance was estimated at 0.11 from the contributions of the variance of the sampling process and the variance of the analysis process considering vapor pressure results (kPa), which allows the evaluation and control of the random error associated with the sampling process.
期刊介绍：
Accreditation and Quality Assurance has established itself as the leading information and discussion forum for all aspects relevant to quality, transparency and reliability of measurement results in chemical and biological sciences. The journal serves the information needs of researchers, practitioners and decision makers dealing with quality assurance and quality management, including the development and application of metrological principles and concepts such as traceability or measurement uncertainty in the following fields: environment, nutrition, consumer protection, geology, metallurgy, pharmacy, forensics, clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, and microbiology.
