Description:
Method 8120 of EPA Manual SW-846 has been evaluated in a single-laboratory study. Modifications made to the current method invlude expansion of the list of target compounds from 15 to 22; replacement of the packed gas chromatographic columns with 2 megabore fused-silica open tubular columns; modification of the Florisil cleanup procedure to allow quantitative recovery of 20 of the 22 target compounds; and development of a procedure that uses 1-g Florisil disposable cartridges and gives quantitative recovery of all 22 target compounds from all matrices tested. he revised method was tested with a variety of sample matrices.
