|
●
Quantity:
o Minimum 20 mL of liquid
sample per element (filtered through 0.2 μm filter)
o Volume may vary based
on expected concentration
●
Pre-Preparation:
o Samples must be
acid-digested (e.g., HNO₃/HCl) if solid/sludge
o Filtered (0.2 μm)
to remove particulates
o pH-adjusted if
necessary (e.g., for preservation)
●
State:
o Liquid only (aqueous
matrix preferred)
o No organic solvents
without prior consultation
●
Standards
Required for Quantitative Analysis
o Provide certified
standards for each target element.
o Each element &
standard counts as a separate sample (charged accordingly).
o If standards are not
provided, only absorbance values will be reported (no quantification).
●
Sample
Processing
o All samples (standards
+ unknowns) processed using client-provided method.
o Raw data only will be
provided (no advanced data interpretation).
●
Minimum
Sample Requirement
o Batch processing:
Minimum 20 total samples (standards + unknowns) per run.
o Smaller batches may
incur additional charges.
●
Submission
Notes
o Label samples clearly
with element(s) of interest and expected concentration range.
o Hazardous samples
(e.g., HF-containing) require prior approval.
