The National Institute of Standards & Technologies Organic Chemical Metrology Group requires Egg Powder Packaging for a new Standard Reference Material (SRM), in accordance with the attached Statement of Work (SOW).

The Chemical Sciences Division is responsible for chemical measurements in a broad range of areas, including the development of reference materials for the determination of the nutritional content and potential contamination of foods and dietary supplements. The packaging of this material is for use as a new SRM. This material will be packaged in polyethylene heat-sealed bags inside heat-sealed Mylar pouches with packets of silica gel. Homogeneity of the packaged material will be confirmed through elemental analysis. The material (whole egg powder) provided by NIST will be blended and packaged in 10 g aliquots in 4 mil polyethylene bags under dry nitrogen or argon. This polyethylene package will then be overpackaged in an aluminized packet with a suitable quantity of silica gel (e.g., two packets of SORB-IT).
