Test Interpretation
QA issues – incorrect interpretation
We continue to receive tests that are submitted with incorrect interpretation, despite the instructions being accurate.
Please ensure that the correct interpretation is selected and readings/results are recorded arcuately. Follow any special instructions that have been noted within the test information.
If you believe the interpretation should be different from the one stated in the WSA then please either contact the Office or APHA prior to reading on TT2.
