Description:

Three SW-846 analytical methods (8270 [semivolatile organics], 8081 [organochlorine pesticides], and 8141 [organophosphorus insecticides]) can be used in conjunction with extraction procedures (Methods 3540 or 3550) and sample clean-up (Methods 3640 and draft-3670) to measure almost all of the Best Demonstrated Available Technology (BDAT) list chemicals in three waste matrices with recoveries of 40-70 percent. owever, several analytes can not be measured using these gas chromatographic techniques: toluene di-isocyanate, the four diaminotoluene isomers (2,4-, 2,3-, 2,6, and 3,4-), nor any methylcyclohexylamine isomers.
