EPA 8270E

EPA Method 8270E (SW-846): Semivolatile Organic Compounds by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS)

Applicability: “EPA Method 8270E is applicable for the analysis of semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in various solid waste matrices, soils, air sampling media, and water samples. It utilizes gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) for the identification and quantification of these compounds.

Purpose: EPA Method 8270E provides a standardized protocol for analyzing semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in various environmental samples using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). It’s designed to identify and quantify a wide range of SVOCs, including acidic, basic, and neutral compounds, in matrices like water, soil, and solid waste.
