Photo of silver capsules containing reference water used for the calibration of stable hydrogen and oxygen measurements. This reference material is intended for calibration of stable hydrogen (δ2H) and oxygen (δ18O) measurements of unknown water or hydrogen- or oxygen-bearing substances with a TC/EA (thermal conversion/elemental analyzer)

Photo of glass ampoules of reference material VSMOW. This reference material (RM) is an international measurement standard that defines the zero of the δ2 H and δ18O Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water–Standard Light Antarctic Precipitation (VSMOW-SLAP) isotope scales in water and in all other hydrogen-bearing substances and in selected oxyge
