RE: percent relative error, %RSD: relative standard deviation, and CL: confidence limits were calculated from: CL = ±tS/√n. (the tabulated value of t is 4.303 at the 95% confidence level; S = standard deviation, and n = number of measurements). Theoretical values of t- and F-tests at 95% confidence limits are 4.303 and 19.0, respectively.
