ABSTRACT
Current Polish Standard methods for the determination of sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium
in natural fresh water were compared with other official standards, mostly from the U.S. (ASTM, USEPA,
USGS), regarding recommended top concentrations of measured elements in measured solutions and methods
of regulating the sensitivity of measurements.
Some of the disadvantageous limitations of conditions and methods of performing the spectrometric
measurements that exist in Polish Standards were shown.
