What is the lowest level of mercury available in GE and Osram fluorescent lamps?

As ALTO lamp research progressed, Philips has attempted to take measurements but no accurate calibration is possible. As a result, the best information we have is that the industry average for 1994 was 22.8mg for a four-foot lamp according to NEMA.
