NIST UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY

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.

Catalogs GC. Catalog lists capillary columns and accessories; packings; septa; traps; fittings; valves; syringes; analytical standards; and autosampler vials, caps, and seals. 196 pp. Chemical Research Supplies 428

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.

Chemicals. Catalog includes research chemicals, high-purity acids, distilledin-glass solvents, and desiccants. Ta­ bles of oxidation-reduction indicators and colorimetric reagents for iron and copper are included. 474 pp. GFS Chemicals 429 Reagents/chromatography. Catalog includes laboratory reagents; high-pu­ rity acids and solvents; columns and packings for HPLC; and products for solid-phase extraction, biochromatography, and chiral chromatography. J. T. Baker 432
