General Description

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has method 8272 which is PARENT AND ALKYL POLYCYCLIC AROMATICS IN SEDIMENT PORE WATER BY SOLID-PHASE MICROEXTRACTION AND GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY/MASS SPECTROMETRY IN SELECTED ION MONITORING MODE. This method can be used to determine nanogram to milligram per liter PAH concentrations in pore water. The PAHs are determined using SPME followed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode. Solid-Phase Microextraction: The SPME extraction of the water samples is performed using a commercially available polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-coated fused silica fiber while the water sample is mixed by the precession of the autosampler mixing chamber.
