General Chemistry
OnSite's
General Chemistry Department is certified to provide analytical support
for environmental monitoring and for cleanup of domestic and industrial
wastes. In addition, we offer drinking, surface and saline water analyses.
The scope of our general chemistry methods are listed below. We utilize
an array of testing equipment including UV Spectrometers, and an assortment
of electrochemical probes. The analytical techniques we use include Titrimetry,
Colorimetry, Gravimetry, and Ion Specific electrode testing.
Our objective is to provide accurate, legally defensible and timely results
to our clients. Our quality assurance program focuses on measuring and
verifying laboratory performance, as documented in our Quality Assurance
Manual (QAM) and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). We also participate
in a nationwide proficiency testing program to assure that our laboratory
meets or exceeds accuracy and precision standards.
In our efforts to provide a comprehensive range of services, we continue
to expand and develop our capabilities and services. OnSite continues
to invest in new equipment and to keep abreast of the most recent method
developments. If you have questions regarding our capabilities or to discuss
methods not listed below, please contact the
