APPLICABILITY: See Table 3 for working ranges. This method can be used for simultaneous determination of two or more of the analytes of interest either by use of both of the capillary columns listed above or by modifying the analytical parameters (i.e., temperature program) of the method. High humidity during sampling will decrease total breakthrough volume.
INTERFERENCES: None identified but as the number of different analytes sampled increases so does the chance for interferences. The choice of capillary column or analytical parameters may be modified to circumvent such interferences.
OTHER METHODS: This method is an update for NMAM Method 1003 (Issue 1, 2/15/84) [2]. Trichloroethylene, NIOSH Method 1022, was included in this method update [3]. Method improvements include higher recoveries at lower sample recovery levels, lower LOD and LOQ values, incorporation of capillary column chromatography, and acceptable recoveries in a 30 day storage stability study.
