VI. Appendix B: Turbidity Standard Solutions
The following turbidity standards are available from Global Water, contact the Sales
Department or Technical Support for more information.
These are EPA approved primary standards that are safe, non-toxic and disposable.
They are easy-to-use with no dilution or re-suspension needed. Their inherent
stability means they do not settle from suspension and require no stirring. The
convenient submicron polymer suspensions are non-toxic primary calibration
standards approved by the US EPA for drinking water analysis for turbidity, and
preferred by the U. S. Geological Survey for turbidity and sediment transport
analysis.
