Terphenyl-D14 – recovery standard – add to each extract Confirmation

CCV Limit: ± 30%, ISTD ±50% from ICAL – beginning & end of run, IS>70%

Additional : One CCV per tune window. Continuing Tune window 12 hours,. DFTPP Calibration DDT Breakdown ≤20%. Resolution - Anthracene and phenanthrene should be separated by baseline. Benz[a]anthracene and chrysene should be separated by a valley whose height is less than 25% of the average peak height of these two compounds.
