Precision Repeatability Calculator

Professional precision (repeatability) calculator for Assay, Dissolution, Content Uniformity, and Impurity by HPLC or UV-Vis. Enter your standard data once, then each sample's own reading and individually-weighed sample weight — the calculator computes mg/dosage and Result (%) per sample, using every sample's own weight (the step most spreadsheet templates get wrong when copy-dragging a formula), then reports Mean, Max, Min and %RSD against your acceptance limit. Includes a visual deviation map, trend chart, full step-by-step math log, and a built-in Beginner Tips & Guide tab — no manual calculation needed.

Precision Repeatability Data Entry

mg/dosage & Result (%) Formula (per sample)
mg/dosage = (Sample Area × Std Weight (mg) × Dilution Factor × Avg. Weight (mg) × Potency of Standard (%)) ÷ (Avg. Standard Area × Sample Weight (mg) — this sample's own weight × 100)
mg/dosage — with API Factor = (Sample Area × Std Weight (mg) × Dilution Factor × API Factor × Avg. Weight (mg) × Potency of Standard (%)) ÷ (Avg. Standard Area × Sample Weight (mg) — this sample's own weight × 100)
Result (%) = (mg/dosage ÷ Label Claim) × 100

%RSD = (Standard Deviation of Result (%) ÷ Average of Result (%)) × 100
Repeatability method: Weigh and inject 6 independent sample preparations (or as required by your method SOP) at 100% test concentration. Each sample keeps its own weighed value in its own row — never share one sample's weight across other rows, which is the most common spreadsheet copy-formula error in this calculation.
Instrument Type
Updates the response label everywhere below — table, results & print report. UV-Vis also enforces a valid 0.00–2.00 AU absorbance range.
Select Test
Required — pick the test this precision/repeatability run is for before calculating.
System Suitability Test — Area of Standard
Enter each standard injection's peak area — same as the "No. of Inj. / Area of Standard" table in your Excel sheet. Average, SD and %RSD are computed automatically and used as the Standard Area below.
Average of standard Area = 0 | Standard deviation (SD) = 0 | % Relative standard deviation (%RSD) = 0% (Limit of %RSD ≤ 2%)
Standard & Product Data
Optional correction factor. Leave blank to skip — it only appears in the formula and calculation when a value is entered.
Configuration
Confirm the exact limit against your approved protocol/monograph
Controls displayed digits only — the underlying calculation always uses full floating-point precision, same as Excel
No. of samples — Area of Sample, Weight of Sample (mg), mg/dosage & Result (%)
Add extra Area of Sample columns if a sample was injected more than once — the average of that row's filled area readings is used automatically. Add or remove sample rows freely; at least 2 samples are required.
No. of samples = 0 | Average value = 0.00 | SD = 0.00 | % RSD = 0.00%

Step-by-Step Calculation Trace

1
Step 1 — mg/dosage & Result (%) per Sample (own weight)
Each sample's peak area is divided by its own weighed sample weight — never a shared or fixed weight — then converted to mg/dosage and Result (%):
2
Step 2 — Count Replicates & Compute Mean
Count the number of valid Result (%) values (n) and compute the arithmetic mean (x̄):
3
Step 3 — Sum of Squared Deviations, Variance & SD
Compute each deviation from the mean, square it, sum them, divide by (n−1) for variance, then take the square root for standard deviation (s):
4
Step 4 — Final %RSD & Verdict
Divide the standard deviation by the mean and multiply by 100 to get the final %RSD, then compare to the acceptance limit:
