Chemistry methods
- NMKL Protocol No. 1: Referentvejledning for det kemiske område – Udarbejdelse af analysemetoder indenfor NMKL (Danish only)
- NMKL Protocol No. 5: Analytical Quality Control – Guidelines for the publication of analytical results of chemical analyses in foodstuffs. This protocol gives a guideline for publications on what that should to be included and reviewed when elaborating, review or issuing articles where chemical results are included.
- NMKL Protocol No. 6: Requirements for validation of chemical NMKL methods that are not to be validated collaboratively

CODEX method criteria
As an alternative to specifying analytical methods in Codex Standards, Codex has adopted method criteria, i.e. Codex has a set of method performance characteristics for which there have been established numeric values. The laboratories can choose which method to use as long as the criteria are fulfilled. The method criteria are calculated based on the ML (maximum level) and the Horwitz’ ratio.
