Preparation of Apparatus7.1 Wash the apparatus thoroughly in a solution of liquiddetergent and hot water and rinse with hot tap water (Note 3).Rinse with filtered isopropyl alcohol to

24、 remove the water; thenrinse twice with filtered solvent.NOTE 3Distilled or deionized water shall be used in areas wherehardness or contamination increase the blank count over the allowablelevel.7.2 Sample Bottle PreparationRepeat the procedure of7.1 for both the sample bottles and caps, then allow
