u + Lancaster Laboratories <br />2425 New Holland Pike 0 Lancaster, PA 17601 Explanation of Symbols and Abbreviations <br />The following defines common symbols and abbreviations used in reporting technical data: <br />ND d <br />f^ <br />TNTC <br />none etected <br />Too Numerous To Count <br />BIVIQL <br />MPN <br />Below Minimum Quantitation Level <br />' <br />IU <br />International Units <br />CP Units <br />Most Probable Number <br />cobaft-chloroplatinate units <br />umhoslcm <br />micromhos/cm <br />MTU <br />nephelometric turbidity units <br />C <br />degrees Celsius <br />F <br />degrees Fahrenheit <br />meq <br />milliequivalents <br />Ib. <br />pound(s) <br />g <br />gram(s) <br />kg <br />kilogram(s) <br />ug <br />microgram(s) <br />mg <br />milligram(s) <br />ml <br />m3 <br />milliliter(s) <br />cubic meter(s) <br />I <br />liter(s) <br />ul <br />microliter(s) <br />< <br />less than - The number following the sign is <br />the limit of tluantitation, <br />the smallest amount of analyte which can be <br />F <br />reliably determined using this specific test. <br />' <br />> <br />greater than <br />J <br />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/]),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 />U.S. EPA CLP Data Qualifiers: <br />Organic Qualifiers Inorganic Qualifiiers <br /># A TIC is a possible aldol -condensation product B Value is <CRDL, but ?IDL <br />B Analyte was also detected in the blank E Estimated due to interference <br />C Pesticide result confirmed by GCIMS M Duplicate injection precision not met <br />D Compound quantitated on a diluted sample N Spike sample not within control limits <br />E Concentration exceeds the calibration range of S Method of standard additions (MSA) used <br />the instrument for calculation <br />N Presumptive evidence of a compound (TICS only) U Compound was not detected <br />E P Concentration difference between primary and W Post digestion spike out of control limits <br />?-° confirmation columns X25% _ Duplicate analysis not within control limits <br />U Compound was not detected + Correlation coefficient for MSA <0.995 <br />�- X,Y,Z Defined in case narrative <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.
