Typical calibration values for a set of fractional weights.The uncertainties are given at a level of 1 standard deviation accord-ing to [31]. The uncertainty is virtually all statistical in nature(Type A). The results are correlated so that, for example, the uncer-tainty in the combination of (50 mg + 30 mg+10 mg) is 0.27 μg.
