Chemical analysis
Not sure what this relates to on a chemical analysis report. It appears in a table which has the headings:
Echantillons, quantité, fixations and produits de fixations. In this case the samples are a water sample and a soil sample and there are no fixations or produits de fixation.
I would normally expect fixation to be a fixing or fastening device of some kind. but that doesn't work here. Is it some kind of stabiliser perhaps?
Many thanks for your thoughts.
