STANDARD VS CONTROL

A standard refers to a sample or substance with a known composition or property that is used as a reference point for comparison or calibration of instruments or procedures.

Control in laboratory refers to measures taken to ensure that experimental variables are kept constant, and that the results obtained are reliable and accurate. This can involve using control samples or standards, implementing quality control procedures, or using statistical methods to analyze and interpret data.
