Incurred sample reanalysis: it is just a matter of good scientific practice

“Integral to the successful development of drugs are accurate and precise data. Reliable and robust analytical methods remain the basis for the reproducible quantification of therapeutic drugs in biological matrices...” Is it not interesting that when an unforeseen event turns disastrous, or at least damaging, it has the ability to focus our attention on exactly those key issues that demand resolution?
