❝ I just don't like the inconsistency of the labs. Some go with 3 decimal places, some go with 3 significant figures.

Isn't there anything in the guidances? ;-)

Start a controlled correspondence with the FDA?

The "4 digits" approach is reasonable, ask your lab in the analytical study plan to provide the data in the format you like, or are you the poor one who get's the data after all is finished? :-(

PS: Found it...

"A presentation of numeric data that is consistent with instrumental capabilities and acceptance criteria. The method should indicate what format to use to report results (e.g., percentage label claim, weight/weight, and weight/volume etc.) with the specific number of significant figures needed.

The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)E29 describes a standard
practice for using significant digits in test data to determine conformance with specifications."

In the bioanalytical method validation guidance there is nothing on significant digits...
