How to Prevent Human Error in Lab & Manufacturing settings
Human error is referred to as an unintended mistake or an action that results in unwanted and serious accidents in a working system. Human error occurs more often. It is reported that human error accounts for about 70 percent of the laboratories error. The consequences of these errors range from mild to hazardous. Along with laboratories, manufacturing settings are also influenced by human error ...

A simple and flexible field-tested device for housing water monitoring sensors at point discharges
The Water Monitoring Enclosure (WME) provides a simple and flexible housing for many types of sensors for continuous measurements of water parameters (physical, chemical, or biological) and provides the opportunity of representative sampling for external analyses. The WME ensures a minimum internal water level and this ensures that the internal monitoring equipment remains submerged even when ...

An inter‐laboratory study on the variability in measured concentrations of 17β‐estradiol, testosterone and 11‐ketotestosterone in white sucker: Implications and recommendations
Endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are exogenous substances that can impact the reproduction of fish, potentially by altering circulating concentrations of 17β‐estradiol (E2), testosterone (T) and 11‐ketotestosterone (11‐KT). Common methods to measure steroids in plasma samples include radioimmunoassays (RIAs) and enzyme‐linked immunosorbant assays (ELISAs). This paper examines variability ...

LIMS: Everything You Need To Know About LIMS Implementation
Modern laboratories generate and store huge amounts of data. With advancements in high throughput technologies and R&D partnerships, the quality and quantity of this data are increasing, as well as the data flowing across organizations. This dramatic rise in information requires a detailed approach to data management. To manage and maintain these vast quantities of on-site data, laboratories ...

Sensor Data reproducibility for enhanced data accuracy
Sensor data reproducibility is used to quantify the data quality achieved by low-cost sensors. Air quality monitoring systems used for pollutant measurement across urban and industrial areas entail numerous benefits. They provide policymakers and air quality researchers with sound solutions to fill knowledge gaps. These gaps refer to the lack of reliable data from regulatory monitors as well as ...

Sample Handling Strategies for Accurate Lead-In-Soil Measurements in the Field and Laboratory
ABSTRACT The inhomogenous lead-in-soil matrix can present serious obstacles to accurate sample collection and handling. In typical lead-in-soil measurement, particle size related errors in sampling and sample handling often exceed all other sources of error. The magnitude of error can vary widely depending on the particulate nature of the lead contaminant and the effectiveness of control ...

Electronic Chain of Custody (COC) in Environmental Data Management using the LSPECS upgrade for ESdat
Summary As electronic information can be easily altered, a chain of custody ensures that the data presented is "as originally acquired" and has not been tampered with during the copying process or during analysis. When using ESdat Environmental Data Management System, all data is tracked and backed up electronically; there is no scope for transcription errors or loss of paper based records. ...

Best Practices: Sample Planning for Quantitative NIR Methods
The focus of this post is NIR project and sample planning, a critical step in the NIR method development process that often gets rushed through in the eagerness to have our NIR instruments pump out measurement results. Putting some extra effort in sample planning could pay off big dividends in terms of two things I suspect are really important to you – accuracy and robustness. So, ...
