Standard Preparation
Posted: Tue Apr 28, 2009 5:57 pm
What is the laboratory procedure for Standard Preparation. If we want to prepare standards how we can do it? Kindly provide reference for it.
You have not stated the industry you work in.
If it's chemical, then the ACS Reagent Chemicals handbook is a good start.
If it's food, then the Food Chemicals Codex and Official methods of Analysis of AOAC international are good starting points.
If it's the pharmaceutical industry then start with the appropriate pharmacopoeia and formulary ( Indian, US, European, Japanese )
If it's manufacturing then usually ISO or ASTM standards - if there are no specific manuals.
If it's water/wastewater, then
Standard methods for examination of Water and Wastewater.
If it's oils/lipids then AOCS Standard methods should be a good starting point.
Purchasing the current editions of all of the above will probably set you back about US$50-100K. Most of the entities that publish the above volumes of standard methods also define or point to procedures for certifying their standards.
There's this wonderful site called Google, maybe you should start there next time, with a focused search...
