OBJECTIVE To develop a new strategy for the value assignment of melting point reference standards based on optimized statistical methods, in order to enhance the accuracy and reliability of the assigned values. METHODS The development process included several key steps: structural confirmation, purity analysis, homogeneity evaluation, collaborative calibration of melting point, data preprocessing, factorial analysis, difference testing, equivalence testing, and robust statistical assignment. Using JMP software for statistical analysis, the process first involved removing outliers and conducted normality tests and homogeneity of variance tests on the melting point data. Subsequently, factorial analysis was employed to identify the main factors affecting the melting point. Each factor was then individually verified through difference testing. Equivalence testing was also conducted to determine whether the differences were within an acceptable range. Finally, based on the statistical results, the method and scope of robust statistical assignment were determined to value the melting point reference standards. RESULTS The reference materials and heating rates were identified as the main factors affecting the melting point. For each of the four model drugs, the calibration results of the same reference material were excluded because these results showed significant differences from the others and were not equivalent. The results from the remaining two reference materials and the two measurement methods were combined for statistical analysis, while the results from the two different heating rates were analyzed independently. CONCLUSION The accuracy of value assignment for melting point reference standards is improved through standardized experimental operations and optimized statistical methods, and the development process is systematically organized for the first time.
