Interlaboratory study no. G-1 : analysis of selected chlorinated hydrocarbons in sediments / W.C. Li, A.S.Y. Chau and I. Orchard.: En13-5/91-127E-PDF

"As part of quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program for sediments under the auspices of the Great Lakes Action Plan (GLAP), an interlaboratory study (G-1) for the analysis of selected chlorinated hydrocarbons in sediments was designed and conducted. Twenty-six laboratories were sent seven test samples including two standard solutions and five naturally contaminated sediments. Each laboratory was requested to analyze the three selected chlorinated hydrocarbons, namely, hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD), hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and octachlorostyrene (OCS) in all test samples. Sixteen out of twenty-six. laboratories submitted results. ln general, intralaboratory precision for duplicate sediments was good for most of the participating laboratories. lnterlaboratory precision for standard solutions was comparable to the previous interlaboratory studies for the analysis of chlorinated hydrocarbons"--Abstract.
