Abstract
A method for determination PAH's using GC‐ECD after derivatisation with bromine is presented. ECD is highly selective and sensitive for measuring bromo‐PAH's. The detection limits were improved up to two to three orders of magnitude compared with FID‐detection of underivatised PAH's.Keywords
