However,since mercury can volatize from samples at the normallyutilized temperature, samples that are to be used for mercurydetermination shall be dried at 60 C (see Pra

17、the drying period has commenced, no other wet samplesshould be placed into the same drying oven.8.5 Remove the tray and laboratory sample from the ovenand weigh. Dry the tray and laboratory sample for an additional4 h. Remove from the oven and weigh again. Repeat this stepas necessary until two succ
