5203 |a"The centralization of the Water Quality Branch (WQB) laboratories has involved longer time periods between sample collection and sample analysis. If the data generated by the consolidated laboratory are to be reliable, it is essential that the sample preservation techniques currently in use be thoroughly evaluated and modified where required. This study investigates in detail the true 'time zero' preservation, where the activities were planned and coordinated to minimize the time gap between sample collection and analysis. Twenty-eight key heavy metals, major ions and nutrients were so studied. It was shown that Ag, Ba, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Li, Sr,Ni, Pb, Zn, Na, K, Ca, Mg, hardness, S04, C1, F, alkalinity, DOC and SRP are stable up to 90 days from the actual sampling time. Ammonia, TKN and N03 & N02 are stable up to about two and a half weeks"--Abstract.
