Prepare Alternative Solution:
Note: Record weights, in grams, of MVS Stock Solution and solvent during
sample preparation.
• Place a clean, amber bottle with cap on the balance pan and press tare.
• Add the amount of MVS Stock Solution determined using the Alternative
Solution Helper instructions above. Replace the cap on the bottle.
• Record the weight once the balance reaches equilibrium.
• Remove the cap, place it on the balance pan and press tare.
• Add the appropriate amount of solvent determined using the Alternative
Solution Helper.
• Replace the cap on the bottle and record the weight of solvent when the
balance has reached equilibrium.
• Mix each Alternative Solution by inversion approximately 20 times.
• Label the bottle with the Stock and Solvent weights, the Solvent Density and
the date.
• Allow the solution to equilibrate to room temperature before using in any tests.
• Add the Alternative Solution to Data Manager.
