Sampling and sample preparation are critical steps in scientific investigations, environmental monitoring, and laboratory analysis. Proper sampling ensures that the collected material accurately represents the population or environment being studied, while appropriate sample preparation enhances the reliability and precision of analytical results. Field sampling involves systematic collection methods designed to minimize contamination, bias, and degradation of samples during collection, handling, and transportation. http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/132
