    Notes: Abstract Receptor neuron responses to plant volatiles, trapped by head-space procedures, were examined in the pine weevil Hylobius abietis, using gas chromatography linked with electrophysiological recordings from single neurons. Seventy-two receptor neurons were tested 173 times for various plant volatile mixtures, either via a polar or a non-polar column. 1) All responses appeared as increased firing rates which followed the concentration profiles of the GC-eluted compounds. 2) The neurons were classified separately for the two column types in 17 and 19 groups respectively, according to the compounds they responded to. It suggests that the plant odour information is encoded by a large, but limited number of receptor neuron types. 3) Most neurons responded to a limited number of compounds (1–5) and showed a marked best response to one of them, whereas additional responses to several other components which seems to be structurally similar, was recorded for some neurons. It suggests that the plant odour receptor neurons are rather narrowly than broadly tuned, and that each neuron is specialized for receiving information about one or a few related compounds. 4) Most neurons responded to monoterpenes, whereas the other neurons responded to compounds of other categories. 5) Both major and minor plant volatile components activated specifically receptor neurons.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Summary The stability of atrazine, simazine, alachlor, metolachlor, and deethylatrazine on C18 Empore disks has been determined. Estuarine water (100 mL) spiked at 3 μg L−1 with the target pesticide mixture was preconcentrated on the disks; the disks were then stored at −20°C, 4°C, and at room temperature for periods up to three months and were analyzed by gas chromatography with nitrogen-phosphorus detection. Complete recovery was observed after storage at −20°C throughout the period of the study. Losses up to maximum of 10% were observed after storage at 4°C. Higher losses (up to 24% for alachlor) occurred only at room temperature; the coefficient of variation for these determinations (8–11%) was also higher than that for the others (3–5%). The stability of the pesticides was dependent on the water matrix, on storage temperature, and on properties such as vapor pressure and water solubility.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Summary N,N-Dialkylhydrazones [DAHs; R1R2C=1N-2N(R3)2] were prepared and their Kováts retention indices determined on 100% dimethylpolysiloxane (HP-1) and 5% diphenyl and 95% dimethylpolysiloxane (HP-5) stationary phases. The physico-chemical and retention behaviour of the DAHs depend greatly on whether R2=H or an alkyl group. A similar difference is observed in the alkane and oxo homomorphic factors of DAHs formed from aldehydes or ketones. The difference is explained on the basis of NMR and quantum-chemical results by intramolecular interactions between R2 and the lone pair of the2N atom. A single linear equation is suitable for prediction of retention indices if parameters are introduced representing resonance structure (bond angle and electron density) besidesI oxo or the van der Waals' surface.

    Notes: Summary Cellulose tribenzoate (CTB) has some desirable operational properties and special interactions with alcohols. When chromatographic separation is carried out at 150°C, the C1–C4 alcohols have enhanced retention and other alcohols are eluted rapidly. Some probe molecules were used to characterize the chromatographic behavior of CTB by calculating the adsorption enthalpy (−ΔHa) between the sample and stationary phase. Separation of aliphatic alcohols was successfully performed on a packed column with a support (GDX) coated with CTB and temperature programming improved the separation of these alcohols.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Summary Rate constants for bimolecular reactions in the gas phase, under diffusion controlled conditions, can easily be determined by the reversed-flow gas chromatography (RF-GC) technique. The analysis of the diffusion band by means of a simple PC programme gives directly an apparent, second-order rate constant for gaseous reactions. By varying the amounts of the reactants, one can calculate the true order of the reaction and the true non-first-order rate constant of gaseous reactions. The calibration problem of the analytical techniques in non-first-order reaction kinetics is absent as are other disadvantages connected with carrier gas flow, peak shape and their instrumental spreading. The method can be used for atmospheric reactions and was applied in the gaseous reaction systems: SO2+NO2, SO2+Br2, C6H6+NO2, C6H5CH3+NO2 and C3H6+NO2 with various concentrations of reactants in nitrogen. The effect of the NO2 concentration on the apparent second-order rate constant of C2H4+NO2 at 333.2 K was also studied. Finally, the effect of sun light pre-irradiation of C2H2+NO2 in nitrogen was investigated.

    Notes: Summary A simple and inexpensive detection system for gas chromatography, based on gas-phase, molecular absorption measurements, is presented in which the chromatographic column is directly joined to the spectrophotometer flow cell, without heated transfer lines. A mixture of eight benzene compounds (including methyl, halogen and nitrogen derivatives) were separated and analyzed. Parameters affecting separation (temperature program and carrier gas flow) and measurement quality (wavelength and integration time) were studied and a measurement program designed to modify the wavelength during chromatography. The analytical characteristics of each compound were calculated, obtaining detection limits ranging from 0.5 to 9 μg mL−1. Finally, the method was applied to several synthetic mixtures, with good results.

    Notes: Summary A new analytical method and the method validation for the determination of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) in lake and sea water is presented. An aqueous sample, after evaporation to dryness, was treated with an esterification reagent. The resulting ethyl ester derivates were determined by capillary gas chromatography using a nitrogen phosphorus specific detector (GC-NPD). The response was linear up to 5 mg L−1. The recoveries from lake and sea waters were 59–105 % for EDTA and 86–112 % for DTPA. The run-to-run repeatabilities (R.S.D.) were 2–8 % for EDTA and 4–11 % for DTPA depending on concentration and the reproducibilities (R.S.D.) were 6–13 % and 3–11 %, respectively. The limits of detection for EDTA and DTPA were 3 and 12 μg L−1 in distilled water, respectively. The method is simple to use and reliable as shown by the analysis of samples of lake water that is influenced by pulp and paper industry.

    Notes: Summary Electron capture detection (ECD), low- and highresolution mass spectrometry (LR- and HRMS), and atomic emission detection (AED) were compared for the gas chromatographic (GC) detection of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) present in highly contaminated marine sediments. With ECD, LRMS, and even HRMS, detection was seriously disturbed by the complex matrix of the sediments, whereas AED in the chlorine-selective mode provided excellent PCB profiles without interferences. In addition, GC-AED provided congener independent responses, which enabled accurate quantitation of all PCBs based on a single calibration curve. However, because GC-AED was less sensitive than the other techniques studied, preparation of relatively large amounts of sample (10–20 g dry sediment) was required for most analyses.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Summary A solid-phase extraction system coupled to a gas chromatograph fitted with an electron capture detector was developed for the determination of chlorophenols in waters. The continuous system consists of an XAD-2 adsorbent column where chlorinated phenols are preconcentrated and subsequently eluted with ethyl acetate. The sensitivity of the method is proportional to the number of chlorine substituents in the phenol; thus, the detection limit for monochlorophenols is ca. 10 μg L−1 and that for pentachlorophenol about 2 ng L−1. The method was used to determine chlorophenols in treated waters, with good precision; however, no mono or dichlorophenols were detected at the levels afforded by the proposed method.

    Notes: Summary A gas chromatographic (GC) assay for the determination of SCH 44643, an orally active antagonist of responses to both histamine and PAF, was developed and validated for rat plasma. The method involved organic solvent extraction followed by solid phase extraction on aminopropyl column. The separation was on a capillary column (DB-17) with quantitation by a nitrogen-phosphorus detection. The method was sensitive with a limit of quantitation of 5 ng mL−1. There was a good linear relationship between the peak height ratio (SCH 44643/internal standard) and SCH 44643 concentration in the range 5 to 200 ng mL−1. The method was precise with a coefficient of variation ranging from 1.8 to 3.0% and accurate with a bias ranging from 0 to 5.8%. Moreover, SCH 44643 was stable in rat plasma after being subjected to three freeze-thaw cycles. The assay was shown to be sensitive, specific, accurate and precise, and suitable for use in pharmacokinetic or toxicokinetic studies.

    Notes: Summary Comparative gas chromatographic properties of two thermotropic Poly(L-glutamates) with long alkyl side chains (10 and 16 carbons called Poly 10 and Poly 16 respectively) are studied. Their thermal properties were established with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and gas chromatography. They present a cholesteric liquid crystal in a large temperature range. The chromatographic separation abilities of the two polymers in the liquid crystal state were studied using capillary glass columns. Interesting analytical performances were obtained in different fields: isomeric separation of alkanes, aromatics, polyaromatics, volatile aroma compounds and cis and trans isomers. Some differences were noticed in their behaviours; 2 and 3-methyloctane and xylene isomers are separated only on Poly 10 while limonene and eucalyptol are separated only on Poly 16.

    Notes: Summary A gas chromatographic method for the separation of alkanes and alkenes present in coal mine air has been developed using modified alumina columns. The separation was carried out using a GC equipped with a gas sampling valve, a FID and a surface modified alumina packed column with helium as carrier gas. An investigation was carried out into the effects of surface modifiers on alumina. The study examined the change in retention properties on alumina modified by alkali metal salts and the specific effects of the halide anions and metal cations. The paper describes the preparation of the alumina columns and the effects on selectivity of post heating the stationary phase. The study demonstrated that alumina modified with 2% sodium chloride and post heated to 150°C was the most appropriate stationary phase.

    Notes: Summary Organosphosphate pesticides have been found extractable by headspace solid-phase microextraction (SPME), and the best conditions of their extraction from human whole blood and urine samples have been investigated. The body fluid samples containing nine pesticides (IBP, methyl parathion, fenitrothion, malathion, fenthion, isoxathion, ethion, EPN and phosalone) were heated at 100°C in a septum-capped vial in the presence of various combinations of acid and salts, and SPME fiber was exposed to the headspace of the vial to allow adsorption of the pesticides before capillary gas chromatography (GC) with nitrogen-phosphorus detection. The heating with distilled water/HCl/(NH4)2SO4/NaCl and with distilled water/HCl gave the best results for urine and whole blood, respectively. Recoveries of the nine pesticides were 0.8–10.6% except for phosalone (0.03%) for whole blood, and 3.8–40.2% for urine. The calibration curves for the pesticides showed linearity in the range of 50–400 ng/0.5 mL for whole blood except for malathion (100–400 ng/0.5 mL whole blood) and 7.5–120 ng/0.5 mL for urine except for phosalone (15–120 ng/0.5 mL urine) with detection limits of 2.2–40 ng/0.5 mL for whole blood and 0.8–12 ng/0.5 mL for urine.

    Notes: Summary A monitoring programme based on gas chromatography (NPD, ECD) using MSD for confirmatory purposes and coupled-column liquid chromatography was applied to the analysis of pesticide residues in surface water from a predominantly agricultural area of Spain (Comunidad Valenciana). Samples analysed by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay gave similar results to those obtained by GC (MSD) for the determination of total triazines. The test employed had the advantages of a simple test procedure, short analysis time and high confirmatory value. Nevertheless, the multiresidue character, accuracy and unequivocal identification of individual pesticide residues of GC (MSD) make this technique the most appropriate for environmental monitoring programmes. In this monitoring programme about 200 samples were analysed between 1993–1994. 27 different pesticides were detected in 91 of these samples. The pesticides more frequently detected were dimethoate, methidathion, endosulfan A and B, endosulfan sulphate and pirimicarb. The highest concentrations found were 39.9 μg L−1 of dimethoate, 10.6 of pirimicarb and 10.6 of methidathion.

    Notes: Summary A rapid and effective method is described for the extraction of organochlorine compounds (PCB 153, PCB 138, PCB 180, p,p′-DDE, α-HCH, γ-HCH, ε-HCH and HCB) from seal blubber and pork fat withn-hexane using a microwave technique. Heating of the non-polarn-hexane was achieved using a microwave transformer. The lipid content of the samples obtained by this extraction was identical to that by Soxhlet extraction. After separation of sample matrix and organochlorines on a silica gel column the organochlorine compounds were determined by GC-ECD. The efficiency of the method was tested with 500 mg spiked fat, extracted using various numbers of extraction cycles. Recoveries of organochlorine compounds in grey seal blubber and spiked pork fat generally exceeded 90 %.

    Notes: Summary An analytical method has been developed to determine the chloroethene series, tetrachloroethene (PCE), trichloroethene (TCE),cisdichloroethene (cis-DCE) andtransdichloroethene (trans-DCE) in environmental biotreatment studies using gas chromatography coupled with a solid phase micro extraction (SPME) technique. The volatile chlorinated compounds in aqueous solution can be analyzed directly without solvent extraction, purge and trap, or thermal heating. The calibration curves have demonstrated good linear relationships within 50.0 to 3000.0 μg L−1 concentration range. Detection limits are 18.0, 5.0, 25.0, and 42.0 μg L−1, for PCE, TCE,cis-DCE andtrans-DCE, respectively. Factors which affect the SPME process, such as sample adsorption time, thermal desorption time, and concentration of salt in the matrix, have also been evaluated.

    Notes: Summary Local anaesthetics have been shown to be extractable from human whole blood samples by direct immersion (DI)-solid phase micro extraction (SPME). After deproteinization with perchloric acid, the pH of the clear supernatants of human whole blood samples containing the drugs were adjusted to about 7 with 10 M NaOH in the presence of NaCl; a polydimethylsiloxanecoated SPME fiber was then immersed directly into the sample solution to allow adsorption of the drugs before capillary gas chromatography (GC) with flame ionization detection. The DI-SPME for 1-mL whole blood gave peaks for all the drugs; only a small amount of background noise appeared and this gave no problems in the detection of the drugs. Recoveries of the ten drugs from human whole blood was 0.74–19.7 %. The calibration curves for seven drugs showed linearity in the range of 0.25–12 μg mL−1 whole blood, with detection limits of 54–158 ng mL−1.

    Notes: Summary An analytical method for the confirmation of 30 pesticide residues in cereals and related products has been developed. Splitless injection with electronic pressure control using constant carrier gas flow gives higher sensitivity and better resolution than electronic pressure control and isobaric analysis. The use of electronic pressure control assures consistent retention times enabling selected ions to be collected in short time windows. Mass spectrometric detection in the selected ion monitoring mode using three ions for each pesticide ensured good sensitivity and accurate pesticide confirmation.

    Notes: Summary The use of microwave-assisted solvent extraction (MASE) as an alternative for conventional solvent extraction procedures for the determination of some triazine herbicides in soil samples has been investigated. In this study MASE method development was focused on the selection of a suitable extraction solvent prior to the instrumental analysis of uncleaned extracts with gas chromatography and nitrogen-specific detection. A mixture of dichloromethane-methanol (90∶10, v/v) yielded recoveries ranging from 89 to 103 (spiked level 200 μg/kg) with RSDs ranging from 2.1 to 5.3%. This solvent mixture is also very convenient for further procedure. The selected MASE procedure was tested by analyzing freshly spiked soil samples and samples with aged residues of atrazine, desethylatrazine, desisopropylatrazine and simazine. The results were compared with those obtained by a conventional liquid extraction method. The comparative study indicated that MASE yields recoveries at least as good as those obtained by the conventional method. Moreover, the MASE procedure provides low solvent consumption in combination with a high sample throughput.

    Notes: Summary The dual-channel detection of samples with detectors coupled in series is possible only when the first detector is a non-destructive one. However, the configuration where a destructive detector, such as the flame ionization detector (FID), is followed by the flameless, sulfur chemiluminescence detector (flameless SCD) can be used to detect simultaneously carbon and sulfur. In this work, the FID and flameless SCD are coupled in series for dual-channel detection of sulfur compounds in three gasoline samples. Optimum conditions for flameless SCD were evaluated by altering the flow rates of hydrogen and air and the oxygen pressure to the ozone generator. Samples are identified by retention indices where the homologous n-alkylthiols are used as standards. The increment in retention index per carbon number of the n-alkylthiols is 105.54 in the Quadrex 007 series, 0.32 mm i.d., 4 μm film, column.

    Notes: Summary A new method is proposed for the computerized determination of sulfur in diesel fuel by capillary gas chromatography with a flame photometric detector (FPD). The diesel fuel is injected in the gas chromatograph after dilution with n-hexane. After recording the chromatogram, the sulfur content in the diesel fuel (mg L−1 or w/w) is given directly by an integrator provided with a Basic card or by a personal computer in which the algorithm of the calibration curve has been entered. Use of a calibration curve does not require the identification of the numerous sulfur compounds present in diesel fuel. The calibration curve was corrected for the quenching effect that the hydrocarbon components of the diesel fuel produce on the detector response. The method was tested using diesel fuel with a known sulfur concentration and was found to be very accurate; it is reproducible, fast and may be automated.

    Notes: Summary The conditions which affect the reproducibility of characteristic chromatographic profiles of semivolatile compounds from true cinnamon and cassia by headspace solid-phase microextraction are determined. Optimum conditions for sample amount, vial size, temperature, sampling time, and fiber type for steady state sampling conditions are identified. Vial size was an unexpected critical parameter possibly related to the build up of internal ternal pressure during sample heating followed by expulsion of a portion of the vapor phase through the septum as it was punctured by the syringe. Gas chromatography with ion trap mass spectrometry was used to identify the major volatile compounds in cassia and true cinnamon. Reasonable semi-quantitative agreement (r 2〉0.87 and generally greater than 0.93) was observed for the major semivolatile compounds isolated by headspace solid-phase microextraction and solvent-assisted supercritical fluid extraction. The extracts isolated by solid-phase microextraction contained relatively high concentrations of terpene-type compounds in low abundance in the solvent-assisted supercritical fluid extracts, but these compounds were of little value in distinguishing the botanical origin of authentic cinnamon and cassia samples. The latter were easily distinguished by the presence of eugenol and benzyl benzoate in true cinnamon, that was absent in cassia, and the presence of coumarin and δ-cadinene, in cassia, that was either absent or in low concentration in true cinnamon. Headspace solid-phase microextraction provides a rapid and simple method for establishing the botanical origin of the principal cinnamons of commerce.

The acaricides were extracted with ann-hexane/acetone mixture (80∶20, v/v) with a further clean-up step on an octadecylsilane cartridge. The 193 nm carbon emission line is the best choice in terms of sensitivity whereas the ECD/NPD system gives better selectivity.

    Notes: Summary Chemically bonded squalene(ene) phases have been synthesized via a hydride modified silanization process using dimethylchlorosilane, triethoxysilane and trichlorosilane. The surface structure of the bonded phases were characterized with DRIFT and solid state NMR studies. The results of the latter indicate successful bonding of a non-terminal olefin to the silica surface and that bonding of individual squalene molecules appeared not to occur at the same site(s) presumably due to steric hindrance. Among the phases examined, the trichlorosilane-based material exhibits better chromatographic properties probably due to greater surface coverage and hence effective non-polar interaction between the solutes and the bonded ligands. Under isothermal conditions, the present packings produced fast and efficient separation of C1–C4 saturated hydrocarbons on shorter columns than similar columns containing alkyl- or bidentate alkyl-modified silica packings at low column head pressure and are thermally stable at temperatures up to 250°C or higher.

    Notes: Summary The methanol and free glycerol content of vegetable oil methyl esters used as diesel fuel (biodiesel) is very important in describing the quality of this fuel and is therefore limited by specifications. A previously described GLC method for the determination of free glycerol in biodiesel has been further developed and also allows the simultaneous determination of methanol. Sample preparation includes dissolving in dimethylformamide, silylation with bis-trimethylsilyltrifluoracetamide (BSTFA) and separation on a methylsilicone fluid, coated-capillary column using either FID or MS-detection. Ethanol and 1,4-butanediol were used as internal standards. Both detection systems show sufficient sensitivity for concentrations relevant to biodiesel samples. The recovery was tested using a RME-sample containing known amounts of methanol and glycerol.

    Notes: Summary In order to give a molecular interpretation to the phase transition observed with densely bonded octadecyl-silicas in reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) as well as in gas chromatography (GC), nine new bonded silicas were prepared including grafts with polar groups at the extremities of long spacers (18 carbon atoms). The interpretation is simplified by using large-pore macroporous substrates and inverse GC in conjunction with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) as the test method. A phase transition is observed in almost all cases, but the temperature range is lower and more extended in comparison to the dimethyloctadecyl reference silica. An interpretation of the phase transition is given, based on the folding of the chains and the resulting “autodensification” of the layer.

    Notes: Summary Gas-solid partition coefficients (K) for n-hexane in high density polyethylene (HDPE) have been measured at conditions applicable to large-scale drying utilizing a novel headspace method. The method features considerable versability and simplicity due to the control of experimental conditions designed to favor full extraction of the analyte into the headspace. By combining this full extraction technique with a traditional static headspace experimental scheme, a method which measuresK and residual concentration is achieved. The results show that partition coefficients differ significantly between HDPE in its virgin powder and pellet forms, as well as among various HDPE grades. The differences are shown to be attributable to differences in % crystallinity of the specific polymer. Data collected over a wide range of hexane concentrations reveals saturation levels (solubilities) which correspond to crossover from evaporative to diffusion-controlled drying.

The observed estimation errors are about 1 % for compounds containing no hetero atoms and for those containing halogenated substituents; the errors are approximately 2 % for aromatic compounds with nitrogen- and oxygen-containing substituents. The method is validated by prediction of the retention indexes for an additional group of aromatic compounds (the validation data set).

    Notes: Summary The capillary gas chromatographic retention behavior of α-pinene and tricyclene has been investigated on stationary phases of different polarities. On all but one of the columns employed, tricyclene eluted before α-pinene; only permethylated β-cyclodextrins dissolved in moderately polar polisiloxanes gave a reversed elution order. The intermolecular interactions which caused the unexpected retention behavior were investigated in detail, applying methods of computer simulation. To achieve this, we have developed a calculation algorithm on the basis of molecular mechanical optimizations and programmed it in a macro. This makes it possible to systematically investigate a given configuration space in which all the possible interactions can take place. It was shown that permethylated β-cyclodextrin as host molecule for both guest molecules offers an optimum cavity size. As a result the number of energetically favorable contacts between host and guest molecules as well as the strength of the interactions in this stationary phase were larger. As a consequence the elution order, normally only influenced by the vapor pressure of the compounds at a given temperature, was changed. Nonspecific interactions played an especially important role for these kinds of substances.

Due to the long time required (about 4 hours) and the amount of solvents employed (about 650 mL) to perform the official analysis, other methods have been recently proposed, the most important of which involves high performance liquid chromatography coupled with capillary gas chromatography (HPLC-GC). In this study the results of ten oil samples, analysed by both the official method and HPLC-GC, are reported and the two methods compared and discussed, for routine use, in terms of sample preparation, time of analysis and setting up, difficulty and reproducibility.

Although HPLC-PBMS was found to be less sensitive than the GC-ECD method, it was, nevertheless, more sensitive than HPLC-UV. The modified method is simpler, quicker and allows more accurate determination of pesticides in aqueous samples.

    Notes: Summary Since the electron-capture detector (ECD) is highly selective, it is imperative to use a more universal ionization detector in conjunction with the ECD in order to detect non-capturing or weakly capturing compounds. Also in an EC study of weakly or moderately strong electron-capturing compounds, it is necessary to identify the EC peak of the compound by identifying the major component with an ionization detector. In this paper we have shown that the pulsed discharge detector can be interchanged between the EC and the helium ionization modes within 4–6 s. The application of this procedure has been illustrated with a mixture of alkane/alkene chlorocompounds. The interchange between EC and argon photoionization modes has also been investigated. The change from EC to argon photoionization also occurs in 4–6 s but the reverse process requires ∼9 s.

    Notes: Summary Ethanol has been found extractable from human whole blood and urine samples by headspace solid-phase micro extraction (SPME) with a Carbowax/divinylbenzene-coated fiber. After heating a vial containing the body fluid sample with ethanol, and isobutanol as internal standard (IS) at 70°C in the presence of (NH4)2SO4, a Carbowax/divinylbenzene-coated SPME fiber was exposed in the headspace of the vial to allow adsorption of the compounds. The fiber needle was then injected into a middle-bore capillary gas chromatography (GC) port. The headspace SPME-GC gave intense peaks for both compounds; a small amount of background noises appeared, but did not interfere with the detection of the compounds. Recoveries of ethanol and IS were 0.049 and 0.026% for whole blood, respectively, and 0.054 and 0.085% for urine, respectively. The calibration curves for ethanol showed excellent linearity in the range of 80–5000 mg L−1 for whole blood and 40–5000 mg L−1 for urine; the detection limits for both samples were 20 and 10 mg L−1, respectively. The data on actual determination of ethanol after the drinking of beer are also presented for two subjects.

    Notes: Summary Phencyclidine (PCP) was found to be extractable by headspace solid-phase microextraction (SPME) from human whole blood and urine. Sample solutions were heated at 90°C in the presence of NaOH and K2CO3, and an SPME fiber was exposed in the headspace of a vial for 30 min. Immediately after withdrawal of the fiber, it was analyzed by gas chromatography with surface ionization detection (GC-SID). Recoveries of PCP were approximately 9.3–10.8% and 39.8–47.8% for whole blood and urine samples, respectively. The calibration curve for PCP showed good linearity in the range 2.5–100 ng mL−1 whole blood and 0.5–100 ng mL−1 urine. The detection limits were approximately 1.0 ng mL−1 for whole blood and 0.25 ng mL−1 for urine.
