Description:
+ This standard is packaged in a 2-ounce glass jar containing approximately 50 grams of soil,
This standard is not preserved.
+ The standard can be stored at room temperature.
*+ This product is intended to be used as a quality control check of the entire analytical process for the
analytes/matrix included in the standard.
+ BRA suggests that when subsampling this product prior to analysis you use a minimum sample size of at least
20 grams. Using a smaller sample size may invalidate the assigned value and/or uncertainty shown on the
certificate of analysis.
* The standard contains Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) in the range of 300 to 3,000 mg/kg.
Helpful Hints:
‘* Although all ERA soil standards have been thoroughly blended prior to shipping, the standards should be
homegenized prior to taking an aliquot for analysis due to setting which may occur during shipping,
Instructions:
1. Open the TPH in Soil standard in a fume hood to avoid inhalation of dust
2. Mix the sample well prior to removing an aliquot for analysis.
3. Prepare and analyze the standard using your normal procedures.
