4. Sample Handlmg and PreservatIon 4I Samplmg and storage of samples m glass bottles IS preferable Samphng and storage m plastIc bottles such as conventiOnal polyethylene and cubitamers IS permISSIble If It IS estabhshed that the contamers do not contnbute contammatmg orgamcs to the samples NOTE 1: A bnef study performed m the EP A Laboratory mdicated that dIst111ed water stored m new, one quart cubitamers dId not show any mcrease m orgamc carbon after two weeks exposure 42 Because ofthe possIbIhty ofoXIdatiOn or bactenal decomposItiOn ofsome components of aqueous samples, the lapse of time between collectiOn of samples and start of analySIS should be kept to a IrlJmmum Also, samples should be kept cool (4°C) and protected from sunhght and atmosphenc oxygen 43 In mstances where analySIS cannot be performed withm two hours (2 hours) from time of samplmg, the sample IS aCIdIfied (pH s 2) wIth HCl or H2S04 5 Interferences 51 52 Carbonate and bIcarbonate carbon represent an mterference under the terms of thIS test and must be removed or accounted for m the final calculation ThIS procedure IS apphcable only to homogeneous samples whIch can be mJected mto the apparatus reproducIbly by means of a mICrohter type synnge or pIpette The opemngs of the synnge or pIpette hmit the maXImum SIze of partICles whIch may be mcluded m the sample 6 Apparatus 61 Apparatus for blendmg or homogemzmg samples Generally, a Wanng-type blender IS satIsfactory 62 Apparatus for total and dIssolved orgamc carbon 6 2 1 A number of compames manufacture systems for measurmg carbonaceous matenal m hqUld samples ConsIderatiOns should be made as to the types of samples to be analyzed, the expected concentratiOn range, and forms of carbon to be measured 6 2 2 No specIfic analyzer IS recommended as supenor 7.
