What happens if I submit samples on the wrong media?

Modified on: Tue, 22 Jan, 2019 at 1:47 PM


Our laboratory will review if the submitted media was evaluated during method development. 


If yes, and results were satisfactory, analysis will proceed and final report will indicate “non-conforming” media used in sampling.  If the media was evaluated as “unsatisfactory” for your application, you will be notified that “analysis is not possible”


If the media has not been previously evaluated, it will be at the option of the sample submitter to discard the samples, or request that the laboratory evaluate blanks and matrix spikes. 


If analysis is determined to be possible, analysis will proceed, and final report will indicate “non-conforming” media used in sampling.
