What is a Certified Reference Material?

What is a QuiK™Response?

A certified reference material (CRM) is a standard with known concentrations or assigned values of specified analytes. T he standard has a known uncertainty, homogeneity, and stability and assigned values of the analytes are traceable to an independent reference. A CRM is accompanied by an authenticated certificate of analysis.

Similar to a proficiency test, a QuiK Response (QR) is a sample with unknown concentrations. However, unlike a scheduled PT, QR is on-demand and available at any time. Plus, your results are returned within two business days.

ISO/IEC GUIDE 34:2009

ISO Guide 34 ACCRE DI T E D REFERENCE MATERIAL PRODUCER CERTIFICATE NO. 1539.03

For a manufacturer to become ISO Guide 34:2009 registered, the policies and processes employed to design, manufacture and certify reference materials must be proven to be accurate and robust. For CRMs, ISO Guide 34:2009 also requires that each Certificate of Analysis (C of A) conform to a strict set of criteria include an uncertainty statement that reflects all sources of error involved in certifying the standard, including measurements and material purity; it must allow for complete traceability of the CRM. Our ISO Guide 34:2009 accreditation is targeted specifically to Certified Reference Material (CRM) manufacturers.

Critical evaluations are just that—critical. ERA’s QuiK™Response PTs are on demand PTs that return your final study results in just two business days of entering your study data. With QuiKResponse, gone are the days of waiting for the study close and then waiting weeks for final results.

ISO/IEC 17043:2010

ISO 17043 AC C R E D I T E D PROFICIENCY TESTING PROVIDER CERTIFICATE NO. 1539.01

ISO 17043:2010 is designed specifically for Proficiency Testing providers and specifies the essential activities that need to be evaluated when conducting inter-laboratory testing comparisons. ISO 17043:2010 defines the criteria related to study design, sample manufacture and the ensuring of homogeneity and stability, which must be taken into account in the design and execution of proficiency testing schemes ISO/IEC 17025:2005

ISO 17025 ACCRE DI T E D CHEMICAL TESTING LABORATORY CERTIFICATE NO. 1539.02

ISO 17025:2005accreditation, covering the competence of testing and calibration laboratories, ensures that a company’s laboratory tests are performed correctly, and that attestations of product quality are appropriate and defensible. All aspects of raw material, in-process and final product verification are covered by this accreditation. It certifies the company’s ability to demonstrate the robustness of their quality program through comprehensive and accurate product testing.

ISO 9001:2008 ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFICATE NO. 10551

ISO 9001:2008 is a quality management standard that applies to all types of organizations regardless of size or function. ISO 9001:2008 registered companies must have written procedures and training documentation in the areas of customer service, complaint handling, product design, purchasing, manufacturing, product evaluation, packaging and shipping. ERA’s ISO 9001:2008 certificate of registration is applicable to synthetic reference materials and quality control standards.

ERA’s radiochemistry LCS/MS standards are prepared according to your specifications at activity levels that enable you to directly fortify your batch laboratory control and matrix spike QC samples. T hese single-use spiking standards are verified, conveniently packaged in 2-20 mL glass vials, and very economical.

T he direct benefits:  Easy-to-use—ERA LCS/MS spiking standards are ready to use—no dilutions are required.  Reliable and consistent—eliminate the possibility of errors from the contamination or repeated multiple dilutions of your primary stock standards.

radIocheMISTry

radcheM laB conTrol & MaTrIx SPIkInG (lcS/MS)

 Independently verified—ERA LCS/MS standards are analytically verified and traced to NIST SRMs where available.  Save money—You no longer need to pay for microcuries of activity when you only need picocuries. You also eliminate the cost of activity loss for short-lived isotopes.  Reduce analytical cost—You no longer need to spend valuable instrument time re-verifying standard stability. Order what you expect to use on a quarterly or annual basis—we’ll do the verification.

1. Select from any of the following carrier-free, single radionuclide standards. 2. Choose an activity up to the maximum listed in the table below. 3. Choose a convenient volume: 2 to 20 mL glass vials available. 4. For labs that analyze samples with more elevated activities, call for standard availablity and pricing. 5. We will prepare the standards to your specifications and ship within 72 hours.

cuSToM STandardS Standards manufactured to unique specifications available with a range of analytes, concentrations, and matrices.

exPerIence. SPeed. relIaBIlITy. Did you know that ERA chemists have prepared more than 20,000 unique custom standards? ERA’s custom projects cover a range of analytes, concentrations and matrices. W hether it is one standard or one hundred, our chemists regularly prepare standards for a range of needs and situations including managed methodology studies, project or site-specific matrices, project or sample specific limits, and ultra-trace to percent level concentrations. Examples of custom standards prepared by ERA custom c hemists:  10,000 mg/kg total organic carbon in soil  Organic mercury in fish tissue  Pesticides in freeze-dried spinach

Certification of Custom Standards ERA offers three options for certification of custom standards:

 X RF metals in soil

 Gravimetric/volumetric

 Speciated metal standards

 Analytical

 Organometallic standards

 Guide 34 certified reference materials* *Option is based on ERA’s Guide 34 scope of accreditation


ERA can supply you with a custom standard containing any analyte from the following programs:  Clean Water Act (CWA)

 Standards Council of Canada (SCC)

 Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA)

 Canadian Association for Laboratory Accreditation (CALA)

 Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)  Superfund Contract Laboratory Program (CLP)

 Ontario Ministry of the Environment (MOE) Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA)

Contact an ERA authorized sales partner for more information to get started with a custom standards order.

cuSToM STandardS Gain a level of confidence with tangible evidence that your laboratory is meeting all quality objectives through a double blind performance evaluation (PE). The key to evaluating the real performance of your laboratory is in finding the proper blend of realistic sample designs and accurate, stable analyte concentrations. Here is how a performance evaluation program works: Specify the matrices, analytes, and concentrations. If a stock standard is not available, we can design and prepare custom PE standards.

2.

Send us your empty sample bottles, labels, chain-of-custody forms and sample coolers.

3.

We prepare, dilute (if necessary), and preserve the standards, fill your sample bottles, and return the samples to you via overnight delivery service. You’ll receive ERA’s certified values and performance acceptance limits (PALs) under separate sealed cover.

4.

Integrate the standards into your sampling event or introduce them into your lab’s routine sample load.

5.

Your lab analyzes the blind PE standards along with routine samples.

6.

Compare your lab’s results to ERA’s certified values and performance acceptance limits.

ERA can help you design a double-blind project that matches your project-specific needs. Speak with an ERA representative today to begin the process of understanding the real performance of your laboratory.
