The importance of cross laboratory validation cannot be overstated. It addresses several key issues in the field of catalysis:
Reproducibility: Ensures that results are consistent across different settings, thus confirming the robustness of the findings. Reliability: Builds confidence in the experimental data, which is essential for further development and potential commercialization. Standardization: Helps establish standardized methods and protocols that can be universally adopted. Error Identification: Identifies potential errors or biases in the original experiment, allowing for corrective measures.
