QUALITY MEASUREMENTS s STANDARD REFERENCE MATERIALS The National Institute of Standards and Technology has developed a series of SRM's to serve as calibrants, test mixtures, and standardization materials for Quality Control of analytical instrumentation and methodology. MEASUREMENTS and STANDARDS are important to everyone who needs quality. NIST has over 1,000 Standard Reference Materials that can help you calibrate instruments and check on measurement accuracy. For more information phone or write for a free catalog. Telephone (301) 975-OSRM (6776) FAX (301) 948-3730 STANDARD REFERENCE MATERIAL PROGRAM
