PD CEN/TS 16692:2015 CEN/TS 16692:2015 (E) 4 Introduction Tributyltin (TBT) is a priority substance listed in Annex X of the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD, Directive 2000/60/EC) for which Environmental Quality Standards (EQS) have been set at EU level fo

23、r inland as well as other surface waters to protect the aquatic environment against chemical pollution (Directive 2008/105/EC). With the exception of metals, the EQSs are expressed as total concentrations in the whole water sample. Furthermore, analytical methods used in WFD monitoring need to meet

24、certain requirements as regards the minimum limit of quantification and the maximum tolerable measurement uncertainty (Directive 2009/90/EC). So far, there is no standardized method available for the determination of TBT in whole water samples fulfilling those requirements. Hence, the European Commi

25、ssion mandated CEN to develop or improve standards in support of the implementation of the monitoring requirements of WFD. Directive 2008/105/EC has been amended by Directive 2013/39/EU, however this standard has been developed for the analysis of TBT as listed in Annex A of Directive 2008/105/EC. T

26、he annual average environmental quality standard (AA-EQS) value for TBT is 0,0002 g/l and is defined for the concentration in the whole water sample, including suspended particulate matter (SPM) present in the sample. As compounds like TBT, sorb strongly to environmental solids, the fraction bound t

27、o particles may be substantial. Therefore it is important to be able to handle whole water samples within the analytical process. Identification and quantification of TBT at trace level concentrations often require both high sensitive chromatographic equipment and effective enrichment steps. PD CEN/

28、TS 16692:2015 CEN/TS 16692:2015 (E) 5 1 Scope This Technical Specification specifies a method for the determination of tributyltin cation (TBT) in whole water samples. It is applicable to the analysis of TBT in surface water, which may contain suspended particulate matter (SPM) up to 500 mg/l (whole

29、 water samples), groundwater, drinking water and seawater. The working range is 0,04 ng/l to 20 ng/l. The LOQ will be mainly determined by the blank value obtained during validation of this method. NOTE 1 The method has been successfully applied to seawater samples during method development, but sea

30、 water samples were not included in the interlaboratory comparison. NOTE 2 In this document TBT is synonymous for tributyltin cation. NOTE 3 Near the lower limit of the working range the measurement uncertainties may be higher. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are

31、 normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory use - Speci

32、fication and test methods (ISO 3696) EN ISO 5667-3, Water quality - Sampling - Part 3: Preservation and handling of water samples (ISO 5667-3) 3 Principle TBT in the whole water sample is derivatized while stirring thoroughly. The derivatized target analyte is extracted using solid phase extraction

33、with SPE disks and subsequently concentrated by evaporation. An aliquot of the extract is brought on the gas chromatograph with programmed temperature vaporizing - large volume injection (PTV-LVI) and identified and quantified with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometric detection in single GC-MS rea

34、ction mode. Water samples of 1 l are spiked with internal standards and brought to pH 4 to pH 5 with a sodium acetate buffer. Subsequently, TBT is ethylated by adding sodium tetra ethylborate (NaEt 4 B) to the water samples, while rigorously stirring. Solid phase disk extraction is used for extracti

35、ng ethylated TBT with mainly hexane as a solvent. The extract is then brought to pH 12 with sodium hydroxide 1. The final extract is then concentrated to 300 l. A volume of 20 l is injected into the gas chromatograph using a PTV-LV injection technique followed by GC-MS/MS in single GC-MS reaction mo

36、de for separation and detection. A deuterium-labelled TBT substance is used as internal standard for quantification of TBT. A TBT-spiking solution is used for the determination of procedural recovery values. A tri-alkylated spiking solution is used for checking the efficiency of the alkylation proce

37、ss and is added to each sample. Tetra-alkylated reference solutions are used for the calibration. 4 Interferences The reagents can contain impurities of organotin compounds, including the derivatization reagent. It is absolutely essential to verify contamination before use by analysis of blanks. Gla

38、ssware can become contaminated. Heat all used glassware to 450 C, or clean the glassware with a 10 % (volume fraction) nitric acid solution before use, by decontamination overnight. Make sure the GC-system is not contaminated. Regularly refresh the wash solvents to ensure that no contamination occur

39、s via the injection needle. Verify the GC-system before analysis by analysis of blank solvent. Commercially available solid-phase extraction disks (SPE-disks) differ frequently in quality. Variations in the selectivity of the materials also frequently occur from batch to batch, thus possibly causing

40、 significant PD CEN/TS 16692:2015 CEN/TS 16692:2015 (E) 6 deviations in extraction yield. This does not basically impair their suitability, apart from a resulting higher detection limit of individual substances. To ensure that the measuring results show high trueness and precision, use materials of

41、one batch for both measurement and calibration. Avoid major fluctuations in the extraction times and elution procedures within one sample sequence when analysing the samples. SPE - disks may be contaminated with mono-, di- or tributyltin cation compounds. Verify the contamination of the disks before

42、 use. Pre-cleaning can be achieved by pre-extracting the disks with a derivatization agent. To thoroughly clean magnetic stirrers, they can be shaken in a methanol-hexane solution (9:1, v/v) with 1 ml of 2 % derivatization agent. Decontaminate overnight and rinse three times with deionized water. 5

43、Reagents The reagents shall be free from impurities possibly interfering with the GC-MS analysis. Use solvents and reagents of sufficient purity, i.e. with negligibly low impurities compared with the concentration of analytes to be determined.
