Popis:	The results of several research field studies were evaluated to estimate the precision and bias of various designated PM2.5 Federal Reference Method (FRM) samplers. Precision was favorable in these carefully conducted research studies where all operational activities were strictly controlled, with an average coefficient of variation (CV) ranging from 2 to 6%. No significant bias was found between the method designations. Comparisons between the designated reference method samplers meet the EPA Equivalent Method Criteria for comparability except for one pair of samplers. In this instance, the
