Precision Calibration for AASThis gold standard solution enables accurate calibration and consistent quantitative results in atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). It is formulated to deliver high reliability, ensuring trace elemental measurements are precise and reproducible for critical analytical processes in laboratories.
High Purity and TraceabilityManufactured from 99.99% pure gold, the solution is traceable to NIST reference materials. This traceability ensures confidence in measurements and compliance with quality control protocols, making it ideal for use in research, industrial, and environmental laboratories.
Safe Handling and StoragePackaged in robust, sealed bottles, the solution is non-poisonous when handled according to protocol and classified as non-hazardous for transport. Store at room temperature, tightly closed, and away from direct sunlight to maintain peak stability throughout its shelf life.
FAQs of Gold Standard for AAS:
Q: How is the Gold Standard for AAS used in atomic absorption spectroscopy?
A: The Gold Standard solution is used to calibrate atomic absorption spectrometers, ensuring accurate detection and quantification of gold in samples. Simply dilute or use as supplied to prepare calibration curves for trace elemental analysis.
Q: What safety precautions are necessary when handling this product?
A: While the solution is non-poisonous with proper handling, it contains 2% nitric acid and should be managed using standard laboratory safety equipment such as gloves and eye protection. Avoid exposure to skin and eyes, and work in a well-ventilated area.
Q: When should the solution be replaced or not used?
A: It is recommended to use the solution within its shelf life of 1224 months. Discard if the solution appears cloudy, contaminated, or past its expiration date to maintain analytical accuracy.
Q: Where should the Gold Standard solution be stored for maximum stability?
A: Store the sealed bottle at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Ensure the container is tightly closed to prevent contamination and evaporation, which could affect concentration.
Q: What are the benefits of using a NIST-traceable gold standard for AAS?
A: Using a NIST-traceable standard provides documented reliability and accuracy, supporting data integrity and regulatory compliance for laboratory analyses requiring gold calibration.
Q: Is the solution hazardous to transport and what type of packaging is used?
A: This product is classified as non-hazardous for transport under current regulations. It is supplied in sealed polyethylene or plastic bottles that are leak-proof and chemically resistant.
Q: What volume options are available, and can custom sizes be requested?
A: Standard volumes are 100 mL or 500 mL, but custom volumes can be provided upon request to accommodate specific laboratory requirements.
