STANDARDS IS N O W OUR MIDDLE N A M E . NBS has changed names—but not our measurement services The Trade and Competitiveness A r t of 1988. changed our name to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). NIST will continue the tradition of MEASUREMENT and STANDARDS which helped make NBS famous for 87 years and will add new services in future years. MEASUREMENTS and S1ANDARDS are important to everyone who needs quality. The National Institute of Standards and Technology has over 1,000 different Standard Reference Materials that can help you calibrate instruments and check on measurement accuracy. When you use Standard Reference Materials you know your measurements are right Listed below are some areas of available SRM's: Atomic absorption Calorimetry Clinical Analysis Electron probes Emission spectroscopy GC/MS HPLC Inductively coupled plasma Mass Spectrometry
Neutron activation analysis Optical emission Optical Microscopes Particle counters pH meters Scanning electron microscope' Spectrophotometers X-ray diffraction X-ray fluorescence
As NIST we will try to bring you more and even better Standard Reference Materials to meet your measurement requirements. If we can assist you, please contact us:
