Each BioTek product comes with its own form certifying the instrument
was inspected and calibrated in accordance with published specifications
of BioTek Instruments, Inc. The accuracy and calibration of the
test equipment utilized is directly or indirectly traceable to
the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST),
or other
national standards, through calibration at planned intervals.
