Достоверность данных 85 высокая

Как считается эта оценка

Складывается из проверяемых признаков самой записи: есть ли у статьи DOI, сколько независимых источников подтвердили её данные, заполнены ли обязательные поля и насколько свежо последнее подтверждение. Снижают оценку расхождения между источниками и отсутствие идентификатора. Значение от 80 означает, что запись опубликована без дополнительной проверки; от 60 до 79 — что она опубликована с пониженной достоверностью и ручная проверка желательна. Запись, выверенную редактором вручную, пересчёт не опускает ниже 90. Это оценка наших данных о статье, а не оценка самой статьи.

Аннотация

Seven samples of crude oil from Kazakhstan fields are characterized with the ratios of isoprenoid alkanes (biomarkers), namely “pristane / phytane” ( R 1), “phytane / n -octadecane” ( R 2), and “pristane / n -heptadecane” ( R 3). Additionally, the following ratios rarely taken into account were also considered: “pristane / 2,6,10-trimethylpentadecane (norpristane)” ( R 4), “pristane / 2,6,10-trimethyltetradecane” ( R 5), and “pristane / 2,6,10-trimethyltridecane” ( R 6). It was concluded that the higher were the relative standard deviations of R -criteria (variation coefficients, d N , %) within series of any sample, the higher were their informativeness for distinguishing these samples. For instance, d N -values for criteria R 1 – R 3 were 36-62%, while for R 4 – R 6 they were 2-3 times less (13-34%). The reproducibility of R -criteria both at fixed conditions of analysis and at any variations of gas chromatographic separation parameters was characterized. In both cases the relative standard deviations (d i , %) for criteria R1 – R 3 were approx. 3%, while for criteria R4 – R 6 – about 10%. Combining both parameters d N and d I allowed introducing the integral criterion for distinguishing the petroleum samples, K = d N / d i . K -Values for criteria R 1 – R 3 varied within the range of 8-41, while those for criteria R 4 – R 6 varied within the range of 1.2-2.4, i.e., 10-20 times less. It means that expanding the lists of isoprenoid alkanes as biomarkers by considering such minor constituents as norpristane, 2,6,10-trimethyltetradecane, and 2,6,10-trimethyltridecane seems to be irrational due to the low information content.
