The Urban Particulate Matter, SRM 1648, recently prepared by the National Bureau of Standards, with partial support from the Environmental Protection Agency, has been analyzed by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) for 32 elements. Special attention has been given to reducing and evaluating the analytical errors. SRM 1632, Trace Elements in Coal, was also analyzed and the results were compared with literature and NBS certified values. 2 tables.
