The Lyphocheck urine has been optimized such that the drug concentrations lie above the recommended cut-offs for screening determinations recommended by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (formerly the National Institute of Drug Abuse, NIDA) and the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). This standard urine is prepared from human urine to which no preservative is added and is lyophilized to improve its stability.

I have provided a list of references at the end of each chapter, however a complete chapter Additional references) is almost completely devoted to a list of some institutional references (i.e. those published by the IAEA, by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) which is one of the richest sources of publications among Regulatory Bodies). These additional references are labelled with the superscript AR. Many of these references can be consulted and even downloaded from the web sites listed in the Web sites chapter (see p. 425). 

ABSTRACT The analysis of events during the accident at Three Mile Island concluded that the accident was due to confused control room operators with inadequate instrumentation and inaccurate procedures. Therefore, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) called for improved nuclear reactor operator training and Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs). 

As a result of the analysis of events during the accident at the Three Mile Island nuclear plant (TMI, March 1979), the importance of human error in nuclear plants was better understood. The accident resulted from the confusion of the control room operators with inadequate instrumentation and inaccurate procedures. The most important factor was that they had to act in spite of the weaknesses in the training to respond to unexpected events. Therefore, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) called for the improvement of Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs) and in nuclear reactor operator training. The philosophy of incident response implemented in the improved procedures was to take a symptom-based approach (operators foUow a series of yes - no questions to ensure that the reactor core remains covered and only then determine what was the cause of the problem) (USNRC, 2009).
