Work Plan—Site Sampling Page 19 <br /> West Weber Site-Stockton <br /> GPE Project 536.2 <br /> Method Blank: The method blank is used to assess the presence or absence of analytical <br /> target constituents or interferents in the analytical process. <br /> Matrix Spike: An environmental sample to which a known amount of target analyte is <br /> added. The matrix spike provides information about the performance of target analytes in the <br /> subject matrix, and is used to assess accuracy. The spike is the addition of a known amount <br /> of analyte to a normal sample in the lab. <br /> Matrix Spike Duplicate: An exact replicate of the matrix spike. Used to assess precision in <br /> the subject matrix relative to the matrix spike. Especially useful if no target analytes are <br /> present in the subject sample duplicates. Matrix spike duplicates are the second of a pair of <br /> lab matrix spike samples, and are analyzed to check the precision of analytical procedures. <br /> 2937 Veneman Avenue, Suite B240 Geo-Phase Environmental Inc.
