Sample Tracking Log

For any project, no matter how large or small, we should keep a Sample Tracking Log. A Sample Tracking Log ties together the following field and laboratory information that is vital for data review, data management, and report preparation ... 

Always prepare a Sample Tracking Log it facilitates efficient data review and report preparation. 

While field crews collect the samples, the chemist verifies their types and quantities by comparing the COC Forms, Sample Tracking Logs, and other field records to the SAP specifications. The chemist interacts with the field crews for the resolution of errors in the sampling point selection, sample containers and preservation or COC Form errors. The chemist also serves as a point of contact with the laboratory, if any technical issues arise during sample analysis. 

The chemist also evaluates field duplicate data to assess the total sampling and analysis precision of water and the inherent sample variability of soil as a measure of the sampling point representativeness. From the Sample Tracking Log or other field records the chemist identifies field duplicate samples and evaluates the correlation between the results of the primary sample and the duplicate. 

Record the weight in the Container Tracking Log. The acceptable reading must be within +0.01 g. If this criterion is not met, obtain another balance prior to start of sampling. 

After samples have been collected, weigh the containers again and record the weight on the Container Tracking Log. Send a copy of the log to the laboratory.

The observations were performed at ESO using the 1.52m telescope and FEROS. The obtained spectra have high nominal resolving power (R 48000), and S/N 500 at maximum and a coverage from 4000 A to 9200 A. Many spectra were acquired for all sample stars. The atmospheric parameters (Teff, log g, [Fe/H] and microturbulence velocities) have been obtained through an iterative and totally self-consistent procedure from Fe lines of the observed spectrum. The initial values of Teg were obtained from a (B-V) vs Teg calibration and log were determined from Hipparcos parallaxes and evolutionary tracks. The [O/Fe] abundances were derived by fitting synthetic spectra to the observed one.

A simple log book can be used to record specimens. However, the needs of a biorepository, especially when the number of samples increases to many thousands, can quickly overwhelm manual tracking methods. Barcoding systems can be helpful and can be readily incorporated into most... 

The injury rate is calculated from samples of educational service workers from all over the country. The actual rate is calculated the same for all categories. The number of reported injuries that meet the criteria for placement on the OSHA 300 log is multiplied by 200,000, or the typical hours worked without overtime for one hundred workers in a given year, and then is divided by the number of hours actually worked. This translates then to an incident rate per one hundred employees. An injury tracked on the 300 log must meet the following criteria ... 

Two portable condensation particle counters (P-Track model 8525, TSI Inc., MN, USA) were used for the assessment of UFP number concentrations. The instruments were installed inside each classroom and were set to continuously measure during at least one school day. Logging intervals were set to 1 minute between each sample according...
