Simultaneous analysis of all five organic priority pollutant fractions

Abstract
Acrolein, acrylonitrile, volatile organics, base/neutral extractables, acid extractables, and pesticide fraction organics are analyzed in a single chromatographic run. This is accomplished by injecting the extractable organics, then applying a cryogenic focus to the front of the column, and desorbing the volatile components. The column utilized for this procedure is a fused silica open tubular (FSOT) column coated with the liquid phase SE‐54. Minimum detection limits of this procedure by electron impact GC/MS are shown to be⩽ 1 μg/liter in tests conducted on actual water samples.
