The client <br />should consider [his when evaluating the data. <br />E - This flag indicates the reported value is estimated due <br />to sample matrix interference. <br />W - This flag indicates that a post-digestion spike for <br />GFAA analysis is outside quality control limits. <br />X - This flag indicates that a surrogate recovery is <br />outside quality control limits. <br />Y - This flag indicates a spike or spike duplicate recovery <br />is outside quality control limits. <br />Z - This flag indicates a relative percent difference for <br />a spike and spike duplicate is outside quality <br />control limits. <br />• - This flag indicates a relative percent difference for <br />a duplicate analysis is outside quaf ity control <br />limits. <br />- this flag indicates a percent recovery for a standard <br />is outside quality control limits. <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />
