Cover Story: Processes in biotechnology are considered reliable if they produce samples that meet regulatory benchmarks. For example, laboratories may be required to demonstrate that the levels of an undesirable analyte rarely (e.g., in less than 5% of samples) exceed a tolerance threshold. This can be challenging when measurement systems feature a lower limit of detection, meaning that for some samples, the only available information is that the true measurement value lies below the minimum value detectable by the system. In this paper, we first investigate the implications of detection limits on commonly used location-scale model-based inference in reliability studies. To address the need for robust methods, we then introduce a flexible weakly parametric model in which the right tail of the response distribution is approximated using a piecewise-constant hazard model.
