Are the abbreviations in caps correct here
and
does "valor medio" mean "average value"?

"En la tabla 2 se muestra el error estándard relativo de predicción para el conjunto de muestras de calibración %RSEPC y predicción %RSEPV, el **valor medio** y la desviación estándard relativa encontrada para 11 replicados de una muestra que contenía una concentración 1x10-4 M de sulfatiazol y sulfadiazina, 5x10-5 M de sulfamerazina y 1,1x10-4 M de sulfametazina.

Por un lado tenemos que el sulfatiazol se cuantifica con muy buena exactitud (%RSEPC y %RSEPV
