the Variability observed when a quantity is measured in different specimens from the same individual obtained over a time span.this variability is due to both imprecision of the measurement procedure, the metrological variability, and the rhythmic and random fluctuations of the quantity value around a virtual homeostatic set point, the intra-individual biological variability.
