to confirm the calibration status <strong>of</strong> the ICP-MS during quantitative instrumental analyses <strong>of</strong> sample digestates<br />

for arsenic. All CCB blanks were within ±3 times the instrument detection limit, <strong>and</strong> ICVS recoveries<br />

ranged from 92% to 101%. In addition, NIST SRM 1640 Trace Elements in Natural Water was analyzed for<br />

arsenic in each ICP-MS run; recoveries were 100%. Mercury calibration was checked during each instrumental<br />

run using two reference tissues: International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) SRM 407 whole-body<br />

fish <strong>and</strong> National Research Council Canada (NRCC) SRM DOLT-3 dogfish liver; measured concentrations<br />
