A detection level shows a relationship between levels of analyte and some sort of a response. The response could be no observable response, a maximum response, and the standard curve.
Before sampling, freeze cool pack enclosed in kit. This will allow the sample to remain cool until it reaches the laboratory. Open the cold water faucet and allow the water to run for several minutes. Fill the enclosed bottle(s). If purity (total coliform) is to ...
