| Project No.: | 510-38-98 |
| Start date: | 1998-01-01 |
| End date: | 2002-12-31 |
| Division: | Analytical Chemistry Division |
Objective:
To avoid confusion between various usages of the term "recovery" in chemical analysis.
Description:
Literature review has shown the term "recovery" is used to express two separate concepts in reporting results of chemical analysis. To avoid confusion the two uses are to be differentiate by clear definition and terminology.
Progress:
The project was discussed in Berlin and is in progress. A draft of this project is currently under evaluation by commission V.1
A final document is submitted to public review comments until 31 January 2002 > see provisional recommendations
