Proficiency Testing

MicroPT Proficiency Testing

MicroPT provides two programs and 15 study dates to meet EPA, NELAC and state-specific certification requirements.

All MicroPT standards are full volume, ready-to-use samples. Analysts prefer full volume standards because they are processed exactly like a real water sample.
