Summary of this proficiency test:

On 26 October 2011 the proficiency test PCB on Mineral Oil started with 39 participants from 18 different countries.

On that date, the samples were dispatched to the laboratories. Enclosed to the samples were the instructions to the participants for this proficiency test, forms for the reporting of the analysis results and the material safety data sheet (MSDS).

The samples can be analyzed on: Extractable organohalogenic compounds (EOX), Polychlorinated biphenyls as PCB and Polychlorinated biphenyls as Arochlor.

The deadline for reporting results is set on 25 November 2011. A laboratory that sends in results after deadline will definitely not get direct feedback in case any of its results are suspect! So be in good time to get the most out of this proficiency test.
