Introduction (v1.10.0)

This is a Shiny app for interlaboratory microbiological method validation studies. Please visit the deployed app to see it in action.


General information

This app implements the random intercept complementary log-log model suggested by Jarvis et al. (2019) to estimate probability of detection (POD) and level of detection (LOD) from a multi-laboratory validation study for a qualitative (binary) microbiological assay. This app also calculates the intra-laboratory correlation coefficient (ICC) to estimate the proportion of total variance attributable to between-laboratory variance.

This app is intended to be an alternative to the tool discussed in Jarvis et al. (2019).
