scope:
Development of a method for the quantitative determination of PBDE congeners representative for the technical pentabromodiphenyl ether formulation in whole water samples using GC-MS. The following congeners will be considered as specified in Directive 2008/105/EC: - BDE28 - BDE47 - BDE99 - BDE100 - BDE153 - BDE154 This analytical method specifies the determination of PBDEs meeting the following requirements: - The analysis of whole water samples containing up to 0,5 g/l of suspended solids; - The limit of quantification (LOQ) shall be equal or less than 30 % of the EQS; - The measurement uncertainty shall be equal or less than 50 %; - The methods shall be fully in-house validated and tested for ruggedness prior to interlaboratory validation; - A European interlaboratory comparison study will be conducted according to ISO 5725.
