PTFE= polytetrafluoroethylene AW = Acid-washed SR = Solvent rinsed.
d  Store in the dark.
e  Add sufficient 2M zinc acetate to fully cover surface of solid with minimal headspace; refrigerate (<6°C) (see SW-846 Method 5021, Method 9030B).
f  The vials and septa should be washed with soap and water and rinsed with distilled deionised water. After thoroughly cleaning the vials and septa, they should be placed in an oven and dried at 100°C for approximately one hour. Food-grade containers may also be used without the need for cleaning. Containers should be free from contamination.
g  Containers used to collect samples for the determination of semi-volatile organic compounds should be washed with soap and water then rinsed with methanol (or isopropanol) (see US EPA SW846 Chapter 4 Section 4.1.4 for specific instructions on glassware cleaning). Food-grade containers may also be used without the need for cleaning. Containers should be free from contamination.
h  Once the SVOC is extracted, the extract can be held for 40 days.

4.5              Documentation and reporting

    4.5.1         Sample receipt report
Upon receipt of sample, laboratories should issue a Sample Receipt Report detailing the condition of samples, including temperature upon receipt (recorded and reported per individual sample delivery container) and sample preservation status, and chain-of-custody details. As well as commencing a record for the future analytical report, this provides an opportunity for the analyst and sample submitter/site investigator to confirm their requirements.

    4.5.2         Analytical report
The analytical report should describe all information and data relevant to the analysis of the sample. This includes:

(a) Requirements for AS ISO/IEC 17025–2005:
  *                  a title

    * the name and address of the analytical laboratory (including accreditation details from NATA or one of its mutual recognition agreement partners)
    * the analytical report number (a unique identification)
    * sample identification (a unique identification for each sample)
    * the identity of the test method and any deviations from it analytical results
    * a statement of uncertainty where relevant to the validity or application of results or where uncertainty affects compliance to a specification limit, or where requested by the client. (The statement of uncertainty may be implicit in the results presented, e.g. a result may be rounded to the nearest 100 or 1000 indicating an uncertainty of 50 or 500 respectively.)
    * any other information specified by the test method or statutory regulation
    * a statement of conditions pertaining to reproduction of the report
    * the name(s), function(s) and signature(s) or equivalent identification of person(s) authorising the test report
    * the date of analytical report issue.
Plus
(b) Other relevant information including:
    * the date the sample was received
    * the name of the person receiving the sample
    *
