SRM Description Iodine, μg/L Uncertainty,2 μg/L Unit of issue Iodine, μg/L Uncertainty,2 μg/L Unit of issue Date of issue
2670a Toxic elements in urine 88.23 1.1 2 bottles 88.23 1.1 2 bottles August 2003
3668 Mercury, perchlorate, and iodide in frozen human urine 142.74 1.6 5 × 1.5 mL 279.04 3.9 5 × 1.5 mL November 2011
1

L1, Level 1; L2, Level 2; NIST, National Institute of Standards and Technology; SRM, Standard Reference Material.

2

Expanded uncertainty about the mean. Refer to SRM Certificate of Analysis for details.

3

Iodine mass concentration after reconstitution with 20.00 mL water. The reference material consists of a blank matrix (Level 1) and a fortified matrix (Level 2). However, the fortified matrix does not contain added iodine and thus the iodine mass concentration is identical in Levels 1 and 2.

4

Iodine mass concentration.
