When selecting a RM it is important that the user understands the mission of the producer, the way in which the matrix material has been produced and the analytical data collected. Information about the main CRM and RM producers together with a brief overview of their activities and lists their url or e-mail address can be also found at the BAM website see Table 8.4 below.
