SRM 1947 Lake Michigan Fish Tissue - This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is a frozen fish tissue homogenate that was prepared from fish collected from Lake Michigan, and is intended primarily for use in evaluating analytical methods for the determination of selected trace elements, methylmercury, total mercury, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners, chlorinated pesticides, polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) congeners, perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs), proximates, ?-hexabromocyclododecane (?-HBCD), caloric content, and fatty acids in fish tissue and similar matrices. All of the constituents for which certified, reference, and information mass fraction values are provided are naturally present in the fish tissue homogenate. A unit of SRM 1947 consists of five bottles, each containing approximately 8 g (wet basis) of frozen tissue homogenate. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.
