| Preparation Note: | Description • The PT sample is a soil containing total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH). • The sample size provided is 100 g of soil. • The soil has been sterilized to minimize the degradation of the sample. • The PT sample has been sized to 100 mesh. • 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 • The soil is to be extracted and analyzed using an appropriate extraction and analytical method for TPH, assuming a high concentration sample. • Mix well. No particle size reduction is necessary. • List the extraction technique and analytical method used for analysis of this sample. • Using the selected extraction technique and determinative methods, determine the concentration of TPH in the sample and report your results as mg/Kg on a dry weight basis on the analysis data sheet provided. Do not correct the analytical results for matrix spike recovery bias. • Determine moisture content and report on a dry weight basis. |
| Storage and Stability: | Please refer to sample label for expiration date, specific storage temperature, and specific storage conditions. |
