Data for mass concentration analysis and spectral analysis for the paper titled, "Comparison of primary laser spectroscopy and mass spectrometry methods for measuring mass concentration of gaseous elemental mercury"

The project that produced these data involved the analysis and modeling of atmospheric Asian dust particles and background marine air particles collected in Hawaii, USA at the Mauna Loa Observatory (MLO) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Individual heterogeneous dust particles were analyzed with focused ion-beam scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.

The Micronutrients Measurement Quality Assurance Program (MMQAP) was coordinated by the Chemical Sciences Division and supported measurement technology for selected fat- and water-soluble vitamins and carotenoids in human serum. This program was initiated in 1984 by the National Cancer Institute Division of Cancer Prevention and Control to ensure the long-term reliability of the measurements made while studying the possible cancer chemoprevention roles of these compounds.

A comparison of the expanded uncertainty for certified values of iodine in food matrix CRMs. The CRMS were found by searching The European Virtual Institute for Speciation Analysis (EVISA) database using the terms "Iodine" and "Certified" in the Material category. The uncertainties are expanded uncertainties at approximately 95% confidence.

Standard Reference Material 131h Refined Cast Iron - This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended primarily for use in validation of chemical and instrumental methods of analysis. It can be used to validate value assignment of in-house reference materials and, if necessary, to calibrate carbon/sulfur analyzers. A unit of SRM 131h consists of a bottle containing 100 g of chips. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

Standard Reference Material 2718a Green Petroleum Coke - This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended primarily for use in the calibration of apparatus and the evaluation of techniques used in the analysis of green (raw) petroleum coke and other materials of a similar matrix. It can be used to validate value assignment of in-house reference materials. A unit of SRM 2718a consists of 50 g of green petroleum coke ground to pass a 250 µm (60 mesh) sieve, homogenized, packaged in an amber glass bottle under an argon atmosphere, and then sealed in an aluminized bag.

SRM 3672 Organic Contaminants in Smokers' Urine (Frozen) - This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use in evaluating analytical methods for the determination of selected hydroxylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (hydroxylated PAHs) and phthalate, phenol, and volatile organic compound (VOC) metabolites in urine. All of the constituents for which certified and reference values are provided are naturally present in the urine. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

SRM 3673 Organic Contaminants in Non-Smokers' Urine (Frozen) - This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use in evaluating analytical methods for the determination of selected hydroxylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (hydroxylated PAHs) and phthalate, phenol, and volatile organic compound (VOC) metabolites in urine. All of the constituents for which certified and reference values are provided are naturally present in the urine. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

SRM 1944 New York/New Jersey Waterway Sediment - Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1944 is a mixture of marine sediment collected near urban areas in New York and New Jersey. SRM 1944 is intended for use in evaluating analytical methods for the determination of selected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners, chlorinated pesticides, and trace elements in marine sediment and similar matrices.

SRM 1953 Organic Contaminants in Non-Fortified Human Milk - This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use in evaluating analytical methods for the determination of selected polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners, chlorinated pesticides, polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) congeners, and elements in human milk and similar matrices. Reference concentration values are provided for polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), as well as some inorganic constituents.
