When a laboratory reports data from anal5d ical instruments electronically to the EPA, those data must be submitted on standard magnetic media—tapes or diskettes—and conform to all requirements of EPA order 2180.2, Data Standards for Electronic Transmission of Laboratory Measurement Results. ... 

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). This technique is essentially based on the same principle as ESR, but NMR is capable of detecting nuclei (MHz) instead of electrons (GHz). (Lack of a standardized nomenclature has resulted in numerous modifiers in connection with magnetic resonance instrumentation—electron, proton, nuclear, etc, plus apphcaaon-related terms, such as silicon-29, oxygen-17, nC S,P NMR, elc.)... 

There are experimental disadvantages that detract from the advantages just listed. The extinction coefficients may be so low that lines are obscured even by remote tails from spin-allowed transitions. The transition energies may span a wide range, requiring UV-visible, near-IR, and mid-IR instrumentation. Electronic lines may also be accompanied by many vibrational satellites whose intensities are high enough to make the distinction between electronic and vibronic lines very difficult. 

Plan for evidence identification, collection, and preservation. On evidence preservation, be aware that some neighboring units may want to clear explosion debris from vital roadways and their unit. Some process instrument electronic records are not retained beyond 6 hours or 24 hours, etc., and they must be secured. 

Fig. 3.8. Possible lay-out for a simple pulse radiolysis instrument. Electrons from the accelerator impinge on the cell in a short pulse which is followed at controlled time intervals by the light pulse which probes the spectra of transients and their time dependence.

The function of the spectrometer is to accept as much light from the source as possible and to isolate the required spectral lines. This may be impossible where there is a continuous spectrum in the same region as the analytical line for example, the magnesium line of 286.2 nm coincides with a hydroxyl band. In direct reading instruments, electronic devices may be used to supplement the resolution of the spectrometer by modulating the intensity of the analytical signal. In absorption and fluorescence the light source is modulated in emission the spectral line is scanned (816) or the sample flow modulated (M23).

Biosensor advancement in the commercial world could also be accelerated by the use of intelligent instrumentation, electronics, and multivariate signal processing methods. Increasing attention must be paid to the engineering of both the basic components and the device as a whole. 

This correction method is totally automated in modern A AS systems. The HCL or EDL and the continuum lamp are monitored alternately in time instrument electronics compare the signals, and calculate the net atomic absorption. 

If the anomalous result can be unequivocally assigned to laboratory error, the result may be invalidated. Marking the notebook entry as invalid and retaining all related instrument outputs will be invaluable during future audits, to account for the raw data and results which are retained in the instrument electronic database.
