Originally, the comparison was planned to use a single artefact. Because it was destroyed during the duration of the comparison, it was necessary to carry out the test in two loops using a new artefact. Artefact circulation started in August 2020 and was completed in September 2022. Both artefacts were the same make and kind. The two artefacts are standard stage micrometers as used in optical microscopy on a transparent, low thermal expansion substrate. The scale length is 1 mm divided in 100 parts. The distances of all 100 scale marks from the zero mark have been measured by each participant. The results with associated uncertainties of all participating NMIs were in good agreement. All En values were smaller than 1 already from the pre-draft A state on. Therefore, no separate analysis of a largest consistent subset was necessary. With 1400 values without a single outlier, it is tempting to assume that uncertainty contributions are somehow overestimated. To reach the main text of this paper, click on Final Report.

The immense economic value of platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd) and rhodium (Rh) highlights the importance of highly accurate measurements. Therefore, there is a need for National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) and Designated Institutes (DIs) to demonstrate measurement capability in this space. A pilot comparison (CCQM-P63) for precious metals in automotive catalyst took place in 2006, but with a limited number of institutes participating. Furthermore, this study was performed over 17 years ago. Therefore, there was a need to maintain existing capability and demonstrate new capability in a key comparison, in order to claim calibration and measurement capability claims (CMCs). With the core capability matrix, this study falls into the \"Difficult to dissolve metals/metal oxides\" which will support CMC categories 8 (Metal and metal alloys), 9 (Advanced materials) and 14 (Other materials). Eleven NMIs and DIs participated in the Key Comparison CCQM-K160 Platinum Group Elements in Automotive Catalyst. Participants were requested to evaluate the mass fractions of Pt, Pd and Rh in mg/kg in an unused autocatalyst material (cordierite ceramic base). The Key Comparison Reference Values (KCRVs) and Degrees of Equivalence (DoEs) were calculated utilising the NIST Decision Tree for the measurands. The participants utilised a number of sample preparation and analytical methods including hot plate digestion, microwave digestion and sodium fusion, followed by either atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) or inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) detection. Several calibration techniques were used, namely external calibration, standard addition, isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) and an exact matching procedure. Additionally, one participant employed instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) with k0 standardisation which is a direct solid analysis method. The majority of participants claimed traceability to NIST primary calibrants or their own CRMs. Furthermore, several matrix CRMs were included or spiked samples for quality control. All institutes were required to determine the dry mass fraction using the stipulated protocol. The NIST decision tree was implemented for the calculation of the KCRVs and DoEs. The participant results overall showed good agreement with the KCRV, despite the variety of dissolution procedures and measurement techniques for this highly complex matrix and challenging measurands. Successful participation in CCQM-K160 demonstrated measurement capabilities for the determination of mass fraction of Pt, Pd and Rh in the mg/kg range and will support broad scope CMC claims for a wide range of challenging matrices.

National Metrology Institute of Japan, Japan (NMIJ) provided the linkage to the CCT-K4 at the temperature of the freezing point of silver. At the time of the CCT-K4 NMIA (formerly CSIRO-NML) had only one silver cell and this was found to be contaminated shortly after completion. Subsequently, more silver cells were fabricated at different times to form an ensemble of five cells before the start of CCT.K4.1. In the CCT-K4.1 bi-lateral comparison, a silver cell provided by NMIA and used as the artefact and circulated in accordance with the pilot-participant-pilot scheme. It is standard practice for NMIJ to use argon at 6N purity and NMIA argon 5N purity to regulate the pressure in the silver cell. To mitigate this, the effect of different argon purity was assessed in the post-circulation measurements. First the comparison was made under 6N purity atmosphere to preserve the cell ambience after it left NMIJ then the measurement was repeated under 5N argon atmosphere. The linkage was based on the temperature of NMIJ reference Ag fixed point relative to the key comparison reference value (KCRV) of CCT-K4 at the Ag fixed point via the difference in temperature between the NMIA reference Ag fixed point and NMIJ reference Ag fixed point (links to the KCRV of the CCT-K4). The temperature difference between the standards of NMIA and the KCRV of the CCT-K4 was within the evaluated comparison uncertainties of the CCT-K4.1.

Five National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) participated in this pilot study and provided a total of eleven measurement results using six different methods based on three different measurement principles. The purpose of this pilot study was to develop measurement capabilities for the accurate quantification of intact haemoglobin (Hb) whereby measurement results could be made directly traceable to the SI. The choice of protein resulted from its ability to be quantified via different measurement principles providing different routes of traceability. Hb also provided a model of an intact protein with a complex tetrameric structure which is often measured via quantification of a specific subunit or the incorporated haem group. To achieve appropriate results for the chosen measurand, it was necessary to distinguish between the whole protein and fragments of the tetrameric structure, such as dimers or monomers. The participants were encouraged to investigate several of the measurement methods available. This was considered particularly advantageous in this instance as various methods applied to the same analyte may assist in identifying possible previously unknown biases or interferences of the various methods. Hb is being used as a model system to build capacity in methods for the quantification of proteins with a molar mass ≤ 100 kDa in biological fluids in a concentration range > 1∙106 pmol/g. This was the first pilot study for the quantification of an inherent protein in blood with all the natural variations that protein shows in a clinical sample. The different methods applied by the participants included isotopic dilution (ID) organic mass spectrometry (MS) of specific peptides after tryptic digestion, species-specific ID inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), post-column ID ICP-MS, quantification via total iron after chromatographic isolation of Hb and acid digestion as well as two optical methods. One of the latter was the reference method proposed by the International Committee for Standardisation in Haematology (ICSH) based on the conversion of Hb to hemiglobincyanide (HiCN), the other used the conversion of Hb with alkaline haematin detergent both followed by the measurement of spectroscopic absorbance. Considering the use of very different measurement techniques for the quantification of total Hb, the results are in good agreement with a reference value with corresponding expanded uncertainty of (120.6 ± 1.2) mg/g calculated as DerSimonian-Laird mean. However, the observed differences between the results are not completely reflected in the reported measurement uncertainties. The calculated interlaboratory standard deviation or Tau value (dark uncertainty) was approximately 3 % whilst the average reported measurement uncertainty was approximately half this (1.4 %).","PeriodicalId":18444,"journal":{"name":"Metrologia","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141171620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
