Scope1.1 This practice covers the determination of nonylphenolpolyethoxylates (NPnEO, 3 n 18) and octylphenol poly-ethoxylates (OPnEO, 2 n 12) in water by Single ReactionMonitoring (SRM) Liquid Chromatography/ Tandem MassSpectrometry (LC/MS/MS) using direct injection liquid chro

4、-matography (LC) and detected with tandem mass spectrometry(MS/MS) detection. This is a screening practice with qualifiedquantitative data to check for the presence of longer chainethoxylates in a water sample.1.1.1 All data are qualified because neat standards of eachalkylphenol ethoxylate (APEO) a

5、re not available and thesynthesis and characterization of these neat standards would bevery expensive. The Igepal2brand standards, which contain amixture of various chain lengths of the alkylphenol ethoxylates(APEOs), were used. The mixture was characterized in-houseassuming the instrument response

6、at an optimum electrosprayionization cone and collision voltage for each APEO was thesame. This assumption, which may not be accurate, is used todetermine qualified amounts of each ethoxylate in the stan-dards. The n-Nonylphenol diethoxylate (n-NP2EO) surrogatewas available as a neat characterized s

7、tandard, therefore, thisconcentration and recovery data was not estimated.APEOs arenot regulated by the EPA, but nonylphenol, a breakdownproduct of NPnEOs, is regulated for fresh and saltwaterdischargers. A request by a sewage treatment plant (STP) wasmade to make this practice available throughASTM

8、 in order toscreen for the influent or effluent from sources of APEOscoming into the STP. The interest lies in stopping the source ofthe longer chainAPEOs from entering the STPin order to meeteffluent guidelines. Based upon the above, this is a practicerather than a test method. A comparison between

9、 samples ispossible using this practice to determine which has a higherconcentration of APEOs.1.2 UnitsThe values stated in SI units are to be regardedas standard. No other units of measurement are included in thispractice.1.3 The estimated screening range shown in Table 1 wascalculated from the con

10、centration of the Level 1 and 7calibration standards shown in Table 4. These numbers arequalified, as explained in Section 1, and must be reported assuch. Figs. 1-5 show the SRM chromatograms of each analyteat the Level 1 concentration with the signal to noise (S/N) ratio.This is a screening practic

11、e and method detection limits are notgiven. The S/N ratio for each analyte at the Level 1 concen-tration must be at least 5:1 for adequate sensitivity. If theinstrument can not meet the criteria, the screening limit mustbe raised to an acceptable level.1.4 This standard does not purport to address a

12、ll of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed

22、e-based practice and modificationsare allowed to improve performance.4.2 For APEOs analysis, samples are shipped to the labbetween 0C and 6C containing 1 % formaldehyde andanalyzed within 7 days of collection. In the lab, an aliquot ofthe sample is filtered, spiked with surrogate, and analyzeddirect

23、ly by LC/MS/MS.4.2.1 Field samples from sewage systems propose a chal-lenging analysis. Since this is a screening technique to deter-mine if APEOs are present, a 1025 mL aliquot of the sampleis filtered through a PVDF syringe driven filter unit beforespiking with surrogate. It was demonstrated that

24、similar recov-eries of the APEOs are achieved filtered and unfiltered usingPVDF filters. Filtering using PTFE filters produced muchlower recoveries. This practice does not account for theAPEOsadhered to particulates or the sample bottle.4.3 Nonylphenol polyethoxylates (NPnEO, 3 n 18),octylphenol pol
