Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
One liter of demineralised water has been adjusted to pH = 1,5 by adding HCl 37%; 300 ml of the previous solution has been spilled in one glass beaker and the temperature has been regulated at 37°C. Agitating sufficient quantity of the Ba-substance has been dissolved to reach a saturated solution keeping the temperature at 37 °C. After 15 minutes additional reaction time the solution has been filtered with preheated filtering equipment. The barium content in the filtrate has been determined by gravimetric analysis (the filtrate had for BaCO3 test a pH = 6.8).
GLP compliance:
no
Other quality assurance:
other: The activity of the Laboratory Department is certified according to the ISO 9001:2008 standard.
