Norwegian term or phrase: TS
Used as a unit of measurement in a document about pollutants in water.
I think it means tørrstoff but I am unsure.

In the case that it is tørrstoff, I can't seem to find an equivalent being used as an abbreviation in English (i.e. DM for dry matter)

Deteksjonsgrensen for denne undersøkelsen var 5-10 µ g/kg TS og færre verdier ble rapportert under deteksjonsgrensen enn tidligere.

Det høyeste konsentrasjon ble målt på Bergen biogassanlegg der konsentrasjon var 10 µ g/kg TS eller høyere i alle prøver.
