The standard deviation and I relative standard deviation for this ruber of deteralnatlons of the Aroclor foraulatlon are given In the following two lines of the tables.

before extraction and analyolt Is listed, alone with It* aaount and t Recovery
aoeiurod for each oaaple. In cases where PCS concentrations are very high
and thus require extract dllutlon, no effort Is node to quantify this coa

typically 50 ug/g It tha laportant level to quantify accurately to that
surrogate data for concentrations larger than this value, froa a regulatory
