Dear colleagues
Thank you for your opinions and, especially Ohlbe which, I think has got the gist the real problem.
No stats was made prior. We are only a laboratory of analytical determination and the PK statistics are made by the Sponsor. The instrument (LC-MS-MS) at about halfway began to respond abnormally and only in the morning we could realize what happened and an investigation was started.
The consequence was the QC failed in the second part of the run (when the instrumental response is changed), and consequently the entire run failed and should be repeated.
Having studied the stability of the samples after extraction, it was decided to reuse all them (CS, QS, unknown samples stored in the refrigerator) to repeat the run.
IMHO we decided correctly.
Yours truly
Roberto

Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge
in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people.
The specialist knows more and more about less and less
and finally knows everything about nothing.    Konrad Lorenz
