HORIZONTAL DRAFT STANDARDS WITH PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS

Following the phase III interlaboratory validation, the test results obtained from 79 European laboratories from 16 countries on were processed and performance characteristics for the inorganic, organic and biological parameters determined according to ISO 5725. For 23 standards validation results have been obtained on 124 parameters (elements, physical properties, congeners). In the process some 500 validation sheets were handled with in total almost 34000 individual test results. The statistical evaluation was jointly carried out by JRC-IES and ECN. The participation of all European labs providing results is gratefully acknowledged.
