by Michael Desmarais | Mar 29, 2022 | News, Reports, Resources

The Biotic Ligand Model (BLM) takes into account many environmental conditions
in order to determine if a metal exists in a form or concentration that is toxic

Introduction to Cation/Anion Balance (CA Balance) Water that is potable

HOW LOW CAN YOU GO – WELL NO LOWER THAN THE MDL

by Michael Desmarais | May 12, 2021 | Reports, Resources

There is always confusion on how low a lab can go when it comes to what their

instruments. They wanted to account for the...

land either in or just outside of the bullseye.  The consensus from the gallery
will be that I am a very...


SIGNIFICANT FIGURES USE BY LABORATORIES

by Michael Desmarais | Apr 8, 2021 | Uncategorized

What determines the amount of numbers you see on your report? Each test that we
do has a level of sensitivity associated with it.  Tests that you can do by
visual inspection have the lowest sensitivity and are usually reported in whole
numbers in a range of say 1 to...


TCLP OR SPLP ON A SOLID SAMPLE

by Michael Desmarais | Nov 2, 2021 | Reports

Why is this TCLP/SPLP on a solid sample a common question? The main reason is
that people don’t understand the difference between characterization and
hazardous determination.  The EPA developed the TCLP Program to determine when
certain materials have to go to a...
