Requirements for the accredition of water analysis

laboratories Minimum equipments for each service. Minimun required refference for laboratory. Synthesis Evaluation

After completion of this lesson our classmates will be able to: explain the importance of water testing laboratories. identify the standard laboratory procedures in the examination of drinking water. enumerate the requirements for accreditation of water analysis laboratories.

-PD 866 (Code of sanitation of Philippines)

-Examination of drinking water --Department of Health.

January 1968 (Ministry of Human Settlements and Ecology) -published a three-volume Philippine Standards Methods for Air and Water Analysis September 1978 (Ministry of Health) -issued a revised National Standards for Drinking Water

-assurance that accepted procedures available for determination of STANDARD -adherence to the procedures allows comparability of results of analysis within a single laboratory and between laboratories.

Water analysis laboratories maybe accredited for separate services like: Bacteriological Chemical Radiological Biological

 Name, citizenship and domicile of the head of

the laboratory Municipality and where it is established Name of establishment Name, citizenship and domicile of owner Scope and nature of work, specifying procedures

sanitary engineer. In areas where there may not be a licensed sanitary engineer, licensed chemist medical technologist pharmacist

 head
manage

or supervise up to 3 water

laboratories

technical aspect:
physical bacteriological, chemical,

biological and radiological examinations of

water,

should be a registered: pharmacist, medical technologist, or chemist.

 must have been trained and must

have at least 1 year experience.

may supervise not more than two

skilled workers.

Laboratory support personnel such as;

laboratory aides -are needed to clean glassware's, assist in the preparation of media.

Each service must therefore be operated by at least one registered professional, one laboratory aide.

Bacteriological service

-----handle at most 30 samples/day -----5 samples for routine chemistry.

Chemical service

Work rooms must be: house in a permanent building Well-ventilated correlate with the volume and type of work

A bench height of 90 cm provides convenience for workers adequate running water. Adequate physical provisions for the safety of the laboratory personnel must be provided.

Quality-to meet the levels of sensitivity, reliability and should only need minimum service repair. Increased workload Efficiency and effectively. Highest grade of quality media and reagent are to be used
