To evaluate pollution effects on ecosystems, more and more plant and animal samples are analyzed for their concentrations of pollutants and nutrient elements. Since chemical analyses of biological materials are larely influenced by matrix effects, their accuracy depends on the availability of reference materials. Unfortunately only very few such standards exist so far. The described interlaboratory comparison of beech leaves from Baden- Wuerttemberg demonstrates the possibility of producing refernce materials from selected organismus, which - though not certified - are sufficient for research projects. Apart from their function as reference materials, those standards show typical levels of elemental concentrations for their region of origin. First results are introduced.
