<br />< less than - The number following the sign is the limit of quantitation, the smallest amount of analyte which can be
<br />reliably determined using this specific test.
<br />r— > greater than
<br />. ; J estimated value — The result falls within the Method Detection Limit (MDL) and Limit of Quantitation (LOQ).
<br />ppm parts per million - One ppm is equivalent to one milligram per kilogram (mg/kg), or one gram per million grams. For
<br />aqueous liquids, ppm is usually taken to be equivalent to milligrams per liter (mg/1), because one liter of water has a
<br />. weight very close to a kilogram. For gases or vapors, one ppm is equivalent to one microliter of gas per liter of gas.
<br />ppb parts per billion
<br />Dry weight Results printed under this heading have been adjusted for moisture content. This increases the analyte weight
<br />basis concentration to approximate the value present in a similar sample without moisture. All other results are reported
<br />on an as -received basis.

<br />Analytical test results for methods listed on the laboratories' accreditation scope meet all requirements of NELAC unless
<br />otherwise noted under the individual analysis.
<br />Measurement uncertainty values, as applicable, are available upon request.
<br />Tests results relate only to the sample tested. Clients should be aware that a critical step in a chemical or microbiological
<br />analysis is the collection of the sample. Unless the sample analyzed is truly representative of the bulk of material involved, the
<br />test results will be meaningless. If you have questions regarding the proper techniques of collecting samples, please contact
<br />us. We cannot be held responsible for sample integrity, however, unless sampling has been performed by a member of our
<br />staff. This report shall not be reproduced except in full, without the written approval of the laboratory.
