Description

General description

EPA 524.2 Fortification Solution is a multi-component solution containing 4-bromofluorobenzene, fluorobenzene, and 1,2-dichlorobenzene-d₄ as certified reference materials (CRMs).
US EPA 500 Series methods are analytical methods for identifying and quantifying organic contaminants such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, synthetic organic compounds (SOCs), and trihalomethane disinfection byproducts (THMs) in raw source water, finished drinking water, and drinking water at all stages of treatment.

Application

EPA 524.2 Fortification Solution has been used as an internal standard to identify and quantify volatile organic compound (VOC) species of benzene, toluene, ethyltoluene, and xylene (BTEX), bromodichloromethane (BDCM), and THMs, respectively, in river water, tap water samples as well as air and water of indoor swimming pools, by gas chromatography (GC) based techniques. EPA 524.2 Fortification Solution may be used as a CRM to quantify volatile organic compound (VOC) analytes in indoor and outdoor air samples by GC coupled to mass spectrometry (MS).
