The Spectrochemical Methods Group of the Analytical Chemistry Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology develops and applies matrix-independent methods for its certification of Standard Reference Materials (SRM). Such methods are required to achieve accuracy, i.e., to minimize potential sources of analytical uncertainty. This paper delineates a matrix-independent method for...
