12、of acceptance testing be preceded by aninterlaboratory check in the laboratory of the purchaser and thelaboratory of the seller on replicate specimens of samples ofthe material to be evaluated.In cases of dispute,the statisticalbias,if any,between the laboratory of the purchaser and theseller should
13、 be determined with each comparison being basedon testing randomized specimens from one sample of materialof the type being evaluated.1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D13 on Textilesand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D13.13 on Wool and Felt.Current edition a
