Determination of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) and Perfluorooctanoate (PFOA)
1 Scope
This standard specifies the determination method for perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) in food contact materials and articles through liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
This standard is applicable to determination of PFOS and PFOA in such food contact materials and articles as carton, rubber, polyethylene, plastic, resin, non-stick pan coating, etc.
2 Principle
PFOS and PFOA in food contact materials and articles are extracted through accelerated solvent extraction method by taking methanol as extraction solvent, purified by weak anion-exchange solid-phase extraction column, separated by liquid chromatography, ionized by electrospray ionization source (ESI), detected in multiple reaction monitoring mode (MRM) and quantatively determined by isotope internal standard method.
3 Reagents and Materials
Unless otherwise specified, analytically-pure reagents and Class-I water (defined in GB/T 6682) are adopted for the purpose of this method.
Note: all organic solvents and materials used in this standard shall be subjected to blank test prior to use; if the background value is higher than the quantitation limit, the organic solvent shall be redistilled or the test material shall be changed until the background value is lower than the quantitation limit.
