OMB Meeting Book (June 25-26, 2015)

• Point out the possible need for increased maintenance when employing the method. Include 1 precautions about the lens and/or lens stack possibly requiring additional maintenance and that 2 analysis would benefit from thoroughly conditioning the instrument. 3 • Clarify the use and/or preparation of second source standards for continuing calibration 4 verification standard solutions. 5 • If acidic sample matrices are typically analyzed on the ICP-MS instrument, perform a thorough 6 cleaning of the entire sample introduction system and appropriate conditioning prior to 7 analyzing basic matrices. 8 • Clarify the importance of adhering to the peristaltic pump tubing sizes recommended for 9 introducing internal standard and carrier solutions. 10 • If possible, maintain a dedicated set of cones and/or lens. 11 The method author provided clarification to address the points discussed during the ERP meeting in 12 March 2015 in a revised manuscript since the March meeting. No other concerns were raised. ERP 13 members reviewed the manuscript in preparation for publications and the manuscript is under 14 consideration for publication in the Journal. 1.
