Proficiency Testing in Applications of the Ionizing Radiation and Nuclear Analytical Techniques in Industry, Medicine, and Environment
Author: Emanuela Cincu
Publisher: American Institute of Physics
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
The first Workshop on ‘Nuclear Proficiency Testing’ (PT) focused on the new topic appeared at the junction of the nuclear basic research, metrology, quality control in applications, and the new ‘Science of Analytical Performance’ (SAP), namely: ‘how to get/prove the most accurate and precise scientific/technical results in the current practice. Any analytical laboratory should fulfill this goal in order to assure the public credibility of its results, either it is part of the scientific research institute, or a laboratory dedicated to the routine control of the environment, industry, health /medicine, radioprotection, or dosimetry, as the quality of the analytical results and of the services that will be further used depend critically on the accuracy and validity of measurements (EN ISO/IEC Standard 17025: 2005). ‘Proficiency Testing’ plays a central role in this process as the best tool to prove and certify the Laboratory’s Performance & Competence; it belongs to SAP, which, in our case, should be called SNAP (Science of the Nuclear Analytical Performance), as it concerns performance in applications of the nuclear analytical techniques. The ‘PT Workshop-2007’ created the opportunity to learn the criteria / tools used for interpreting the experimental results and evaluating performance, ‘how to fit’ the laboratory’s performance with the rigor of international ‘Proficiency Testing’ evaluation, to understand the basic aspects of methods validation and traceability of the nuclear physical quantities to SI, use of the reference materials and of the statistic criteria for the fitness-for-purpose objectives, advantages of the ILC /PT exercises, and how to get the ‘Excellence’; so, it was primarily a ‘school’ , but not only, because the meeting was also a framework for participants to present their latest results and developments. The unique feature of the ‘PT Workshop-2007’ was the participation –for the first time in a scientific meeting of experts intimately involved in the development of International and National Standards and the organization of international Inter-Laboratory Comparison (ILC) and Proficiency Testing (PT) exercises, of experts involved in radionuclide metrology, who generally establish the norms and requirements for the accuracy of measurements and analytical methods, and experts and specialists involved in nuclear application, as ‘lectors’. Their presence and lessons assured the highest level of knowledge for a successful ‘school’ in the field of Nuclear Proficiency Testing, and the discussions they created were very fruitful, to the benefit of all the participants.

Microwave-Assisted Sample Preparation for Trace Element Determination
Author: Erico Marlon Moraes Flores
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0128183489
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
Microwave-Assisted Sample Preparation for Trace Element Analysis, Second Edition, describes the principles, equipment, and applications involved in sample preparation with microwaves for detecting and analyzing trace elements. Hot topics such as sample preparation for speciation, metabolomics, and halogen determination, as well as the alternatives of sample preparation for special samples (for example, carbon nanotubes, polymers, petroleum products), are also discussed. This completely updated second edition covers all the new devices and more powerful systems that have emerged in the last several years, such as Ultrawave and Ultraclave systems. New challenges in the fields of geology, environmental and biological studies -for example, the need for further determination of rare earth elements and halogens - are currently only covered in scientific journals and not in a comprehensive way. This book offers a summary of the state-of-the-art ways to meet these challenges with microwave-assisted sample preparation. The only book to cover in depth the principles, equipment, and applications of microwave-assisted sample preparation Written by experts in the field who provide a comprehensive overview of the important concepts Introduces the latest devices and systems used for in microwave-assisted techniques, including Ultrawave and Ultraclave systems

Sample Preparation for Trace Element Analysis
Author: Zoltan Mester
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080545483
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1339
Book Description
Following the collection of a sample, every analytical chemist will agree that its subsequent preservation and processing are of paramount importance. The availability of high performance analytical instrumentation has not diminished this need for careful selection of appropriate pretreatment methodologies, intelligently designed to synergistically elicit optimum function from these powerful measurement tools. Sample Preparation for Trace Element Analysis is a modern, comprehensive treatise, providing an account of the state-of-the art on the subject matter. The book has been conceived and designed to satisfy the varied needs of the practicing analytical chemist. It is a multi-author work, reflecting the diverse expertise arising from its highly qualified contributors. The first five chapters deal with general issues related to the determination of trace metals in varied matrices, such as sampling, contamination control, reference materials, calibration and detection techniques. The second part of the book deals with extraction and sampling technologies (totaling 15 chapters), providing theoretical and practical hints for the users on how to perform specific extractions. Subsequent chapters overview seven major representative matrices and the sample preparation involved in their characterization. This portion of the book is heavily based on the preceding chapters dealing with extraction technologies. The last ten chapters are dedicated to sample preparation for trace element speciation.- First title to provide comprehensive sample preparation information, dealing specifically with the analysis of samples for trace elements. - The 39 chapters are authored by international leaders of their fields.
