TY - CONF A1 - Maiwald, Michael A1 - Meyer, Klas T1 - Laboratory accreditation as a reliable indicator of technical competence for testing, calibration and measurement organizations – An introduction to ISO/IEC 17025 using the example of qNMR spectroscopy N2 - ISO/IEC 17025 is the worldwide quality standard for testing and calibration laboratories. It is the basis for accreditation by an accreditation body. The current version was published in 2018. Implementing ISO/IEC 17025 as part of laboratory quality initiatives offers both laboratory and business benefits, such as expanding the potential customer base for testing and/or calibration, increasing the reputation and image of the laboratory at national and international level, continuous improvement of the data quality and the effectiveness of the laboratory or creation of a good basis for most other quality systems in the laboratory sector, such as GxP. The main difference between a proper approach to analysis and a formal accreditation is shown in a targeted documentation, especially on the qualification of the personnel, the test equipment and the validation of the analytical methods. Using quantitative NMR spectroscopy as an example, it is shown how accreditation can be carried out and what documentation is required. In our case, we have described the procedure in an SOP ("Determination of the quantitative composition of simple mixtures of structurally known compounds with 1H-NMR spectroscopy") and supported it with a modular system of organizational and equipment SOPs. The special feature is that the accredited method is independent for the choice of the analyte and the matrix and therefore it is possible to operate with a single validated method. In our case, we have proposed three quality levels ("leagues") with different levels of analytical effort, which differ in their measurement uncertainty, in order to simplify the workflow and analysis design.

As a primary method, it differs fundamentally from chromatographic methods: it is better described as a quantum mechanical balance. Succesful implementation of qNMR requires certain attention to detail. "qNMR - the handbook" is intended to be a guide for analysts to help understand the fundamental principles of NMR and the significant points relating to its implementation for quantitation. Regulatory considerations of qNMR adoption are explained. NMR fundamentals are explained to provide understanding. Together with many useful examples, the book is a compelling addition to the laboratory's reference library, providing all the tools that any practitioner should know to successfully implement qNMR. The authors are qNMR pioneers and come from a variety of backgrounds including business, government and academia.

Während der Großteil aller Untersuchungen qualitativ mit dem Ziel der Stoffidentifikation und Strukturaufklärung erfolgt, erlangt die quantitative NMR-Spektroskopie (qNMR) zunehmend an Bedeutung in Forschung und Industrie. Der entscheidende Vorteil gegenüber anderen Analysenmethoden liegt in der direkten Proportionalität der Signalfläche zur Anzahl Kernspins im Messvolumen. Dies erlaubt eine kalibrationsfreie Relativquantifizierung. Zur Absolutquantifizierung reicht die Zugabe einer definierten Menge eines vom Analyten unabhängigen NMR-Standards aus. Trotz dieser Vorteile findet sich die qNMR bislang nur vereinzelt in Normen und Standardverfahren wieder. Zahlreiche Ringversuche in Metrologie und Industrie demonstrieren die Leistungsfähigkeit moderner NMR-Spektrometer und stärken das Vertrauen in die Methode. Die Entwicklung von Validierungskonzepten, sowie die kommerzielle Verfügbarkeit geeigneter zertifizierter Referenzmaterialien erleichtern die Anwendung, insbesondere im zumeist stark regulierten industriellen Umfeld. Neben etablierten Hochfeld-NMR Spektrometern hat sich in den letzten Jahren ein stark wachsender Markt für kompakte Benchtop-NMR Geräte auf Permanentmagnetbasis entwickelt. Die geringeren Anschaffungs- und Betriebskosten, sowie die einfache Bedienbarkeit erlaubt es auch kleineren Unternehmen in diese Analysenmethode einzusteigen. Weiterhin besteht die Möglichkeit diese mobilen Systeme näher an die Produktion zu bringen, welches von der klassischen Qualitätskontrolle bis hin zur Online-Prozesskontrolle als vollautomatisierter Analysator reicht. Die geringere Feldstärke der Systeme erfordert hier oft den Einsatz modellbasierter Ansätze zur Spektrenauswertung (z.B. Indirect Hard Modeling). Dieser Beitrag gibt eine Übersicht über aktuelle Anwendungen und Entwicklungen der qNMR von der universellen, hochgenauen Labormethode bis hin zur robusten Anwendung als Online-Analysator im Feld.

One aspect the NMR community hasn’t fully encompassed is the validation process, which also involves setting reference standards, establishing a common language that directly relates to NMR, communication relating to validation, and much more. This workshopcontribution starts with an overview on international metrology for qNMR spectroscopy. Since NMR is completely described by mathematical equations, the measurement unceartainty can directly be dreived from formula. Examples are presented. These are differentiated between type A and B evaluations. Finally the Expanded Unceartainty is defined. Since the user needs a risk-based unceartainty assessment, different "leagues" for routine, advanced, and high level needs are proposed to make clear, that no all sources of uncertainty have to be taken in considerention at practical levels.

While conventional high-field NMR systems are often associated with high investment and operational costs, the upcoming market of permanent-magnet based benchtop NMR systems show a considerable option for a lot of applications. The mobility of these systems allows to bring them more closely to the real production environment, e.g. for at-line quality control. In this work we present an interlaboratory comparison study investigating the qNMR performance of state-of-the-art benchtop NMR spectrometers. Therefore, BAM prepared two samples of a mixture of NMR reference standards tetramethylbenzene (TMB) and tetrachloronitrobenzene (TCNB) at concentration levels of 200 mM and 10 mM. These “ready-to-use” samples were sent to participant laboratories, which performed analysis on their benchtop NMR equipment of different vendors and fields from 43 to 80 MHz. Raw data was reported back and further investigated by using different data analysis methods at BAM. After this very first qNMR comparison study of benchtop NMR spectrometers show promising results, following studies are planned to cover more parts of the qNMR process, e.g. sample preparation and weighing, but also data analysis, as commonly done in similar studies for high-field NMR spectroscopy in industry and metrology.
