Chemical Test Detection Limits
In any testing situation it is vitally important that the limits of detection required to meet your reporting needs are taken into account.Tasmanian Laboratory Services has set its limits of detection for the majority of its chemical tests at levels that comply with the relevant legislative requirements. For the most part these are down to “parts per million” ppm.In some instances, for example, metals and minerals in water used for renal dialysis it is necessary to report down to “parts per billion” ppb. If you are unsure of the limits of detection required for your testing needs or would prefer advice please contact the Laboratory.
