by A. Zschunke (Ed.)
The use of reference materials allows easy and exact materials analysis. There is need of reference materials in industrial, environmental and research laboratories. Under the guidance of the German Federal Institute for Materials Research (BAM) the standards for fabrication and application of reference materials are presented in a comprehensive form. The areas concerned are analytical chemistry, materials science, environmental analysis, clinical and forensic toxicological analysis, and gas and food analysis. This book is a standard work of reference for every analytical laboratory.
