一般描述

This Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) proficiency testing sample is produced in accordance with ISO/IEC 17043:2010. This sample is manufactured according to TNI requirements. However, please note, this sample may include non-TNI analytes as well.

In the chronic WET tests, Sheepshead minnow is employed as a test organism to measure its ability to grow, develop and reproduce when exposed to wastewater effluents. This method of determination is used to estimate the effluent′s toxicity levels in aquatic/freshwater environments.

Supelco^?is a global proficiency testing (PT) provider that manufactures best-in-class environmental and pharmaceutical PT products. Most water PT samples are available as concentrates or ready-to-use volumes giving the end-user flexibility in selecting samples that will fit their exact needs.

制备说明

Description

The effluent is provided as a concentrate for dilution in synthetic seawater.
This concentrate is an EPA-specified toxicant in reagent-grade DI water.
An ampule is provided for making fresh effluents for each day of the test.
Do not deviate from the supplied instructions or EPA Method 1004.0.
Contact ptservice@milliporesigma.com before running the test if you see the need to deviate from the test conditions.
Deviations may affect your final evaluation.

Preparation Instructions

To prepare 3 L of effluent, add 2900 mL of synthetic seawater to a volumetric flask.
Preparation instructions for synthetic seawater can be found in the EPA document EPA-821-R-02-014, page 26.
Transfer the entire contents of one container to the flask.
Rinse the container with ampule seawater and transfer to the volumetric flask. Bring flask to 3 L volume with synthetic seawater.
This represents 3 L of effluent water for the test.
