Abstract
The validation process – in accordance with the recommendation of the International Conference on Harmonization – was performed in order to define and determine the application of the developed procedures for the determination of solvent residues (hexane, benzene, toluene and chlorinated hydrocarbons – trichloromethane, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, tetrachloromethane, trichloroethene, tetrachloroethene) in oil samples. For extraction and preconcentration of analytes, two simple sample preparation techniques – static headspace analysis (HSA) and solid phase microextraction (SPME) – have been used. Gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (FID) and electron capture detector (ECD) was applied for the final determination. A critical comparison of developed procedures was conducted considering the values of: limits of detection, concentration ranges, repeatability and uncertainty. The linearity issue was described in details due to the broad measurement ranges of the proposed procedures.
