of hazardous substances which becomes the basis for the discussion in the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (hereinafter, POPs Convention). However, the individual analysis methods and the quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) of each chemical are rarely discussed in detail, and presently, the quality and reliability of these analyses are not thoroughly considered.In the global environmental issue, it is essential that any value, such as the concentration of CO 2 in the atmosphere causing global warming, measured in any part of the world, can be considered reliable and mutually comparable. To achieve this goal, we aimed to develop an analysis method with high reliability, and establish the international standard for the analysis method for the environmental researchers and analysts around the world. We also aimed to create a certified reference material (CRM), so the analysis value will be traceable to the SI unit. As a reference concerning the standardization of the environmental analysis method, the system of ISO and JIS will be briefly explained below.
