Method PV2003

Acetophenone


This method is for the collection and analysis of acetophenone from workplace air.  The sample is collected on a Tenax  tube.  After sample collection the tube is desorbed with a misture of iospropanol:carbon disulfide (5:95) and analyzed by GC/FID (flame ionization detector).

NOTE:  This is a partically validate method.
