Our proficiency testing (PT) program is a benchmark to:

• provide staff with an insight into their laboratory′s performance, to verify the accuracy and reliability of their testing process
• provide a comparison of performance with that of other laboratories, nationally and internationally
• test and educate staff, provide a better understanding of the impact of incorrect results and identify areas where there may be problems
• provide an independent evaluation of laboratory performance
• demonstrate to clients, colleagues and accreditation bodies that there is a commitment to quality

Description

• The PT sample size provided is 10 g of soil.
• The soil has been sterilized to minimize degradation of the sample. The PT sample has been sized to 100 mesh.
• Recommended storage condition is 4 ºC.
• The evaluation of results will be based on study statistics as required by TNI.
• The sample has been intentionally prepared with an apparent headspace.

Sample Preparation

• For Method 8280A, an 8 g sample size contains sufficient concentrations of analytes such that levels above the method specified quantitative limits will be realized.
• For Method 8290, a 1 g sample will contain concentrations of analytes such that levels above the method specified quantitative limits will be realized.
• This holds true though levels of detection will be elevated due to the reduced sample size used relative to that specified in the method.
• Report on a wet weight basis.

NOTE: The PT sample contains less than 3% moisture. Minimize exposure to the environment, cap when not in use.
