Data qualityData quality Dissipation pattern and - for metabolites and sediment data - the increase,
plateau and decline phase must be clearly established
No. of data points (n) >> no. of parameters (p)(theoretical minimum n = p+1, but this is often not sufficient)
The better the quality the smaller the no. of datapoints needed

ReplicatesReplicates
Use true replicates individually in the optimisation
Average replicate analytical results from same sample prior to curve fitting
Average all replicates prior to calculating 2 statistics

Concentrations below LOD or LOQConcentrations below LOD or LOQ
Parent in soil, total water-sediment system, water column Set all concentrations between LOD and LOQ
to measured value or 0.5 x (LOD+LOQ)
Set first sample < LOD to 0.5 x LOD
Omit samples after first non-detect unless later samples > LOQ

Set time zero samples < LOD to 0
Set concentrations between LOD and LOQ to measured value or 0.5 x (LOD+LOQ)
Set sample <LOD just before & after detectable amount to 0.5 LOD
Omit all other samples < LOD (exceptions)

Experimental artefactsExperimental artefacts Discard results clearly arising from analytical or
procedural errors before analysis
If microbial activity declined significantly during study:
Include all data initially, then exclude later sampling points
and repeat fitting
