Storage and reporting of odd samples. NILU OR
The report gives recommendation on the storage and the reporting of measurements from odd samples. It is important that the report contains the measurements and description of the measurements for later use. A recommendation for storing the measurements is making a simple database with a library function. The library function will give the path to samples with given key words and where to find them.

Stochastic and deterministic processes in Asymmetric Tsetlin Machine
This paper introduces a new approach to enhance the decision-making capabilities of the Tsetlin Machine (TM) through the Stochastic Point Location (SPL) algorithm and the Asymmetric Steps technique. We incorporate stochasticity and asymmetry into the TM's process, along with a decaying normal distribution function that improves adaptability as it converges toward zero over time. We present two methods: the Asymmetric Probabilistic Tsetlin (APT) Machine, influenced by random events, and the Asymmetric Tsetlin (AT) Machine, which transitions from probabilistic to deterministic states. We evaluate these methods against traditional machine learning algorithms and classical Tsetlin (CT) machines across various benchmark datasets. Both AT and APT demonstrate competitive performance, with the AT model notably excelling, especially in complex datasets.

Background
Chlorinated paraffins (CPs) are industrial chemicals categorised as persistent organic pollutants because of their toxicity, persistency and tendency to long-range transport, bioaccumulation and biomagnification. Despite having been the subject of environmental attention for decades, analytical methods for CPs still struggle reaching a sufficient degree of accuracy. Among the issues negatively impacting the quantification of CPs, the unavailability of well-characterised standards, both as pure substances and as matrix (certified) reference materials (CRMs), has played a major role. The focus of this study was to provide a matrix CRM as quality control tool to improve the comparability of CPs measurement results.
Results
We present the process of certification of ERM®-CE100, the first fish reference material assigned with certified values for the mass fraction of short-chain and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs and MCCPs, respectively). The certification was performed in accordance with ISO 17034:2016 and ISO Guide 35:2017, with the value assignment step carried out via an intercomparison of laboratories of demonstrated competence in CPs analysis and applying procedures based on different analytical principles. After confirmation of the homogeneity and stability of the CRM, two certified values were assigned for SCCPs, depending on the calibrants used: 31 ± 9 μg kg−1 and 23 ± 7 μg kg−1. The MCCPs certified value was established as 44 ± 17 μg kg−1. All assigned values are relative to wet weight in the CRM that was produced as a fish paste to enhance similarity to routine biota samples.
Significance and novelty
The fish tissue ERM-CE100 is the first matrix CRM commercially available for the analysis of CPs, enabling analytical laboratories to improve the accuracy and the metrological traceability of their measurements. The certified CPs values are based on results obtained by both gas and liquid chromatography coupled with various mass spectrometric techniques, offering thus a broad validity to laboratories employing different analytical methods and equipment.
