Preferred Label : segment;
Detailed label : segment in analytical chemistry;
IUPAC definition : the set of samples which can be analysed between two successive calibrations. a segment
includes samples, control materials and blank samples. this term is of particular
importance in clinical chemistry.; (for bulk materials): each of the single, large portions of material pre-existing
either in space (e.g. bags, bales, drums) or accumulated during a fixed time (e.g.
discharge from a conveyor belt) or formable as increments by a sampling device. segments
may be actual or conceptual.;
