Tsuji K, Fushiwaki Y, Mori Y, Arashidani K, Nakajima D, Fujimaki H, Goto S: Simultaneous analysis of termiticides in indoor air by using gas chromatography mass spectrometry. J UOEH. 2005 Jun 1;27(2):151-60.
We have established a method for simultaneously analyzing termiticides (13 kinds) in indoor air based on collection by combination of quartz filter and C18 Empore extraction disks, and measurement using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The lower limit of determination for each substance was 0.02 microg/m3 when 2 m3 of air was sampled. The recovery was 66-100%, and the relative standard deviation was 3.7-14.2%. In experiments using a model box with commercial termiticides, we verified that emissions of bis (2, 3, 3, 3-tetrachloropropyl) ether (S421) increased with a rise in temperature from 10 degrees C to 20 degrees C to 40 degrees C, whereas almost no etofenprox was released into the air regardless of temperature. In addition, decanal, nonanal and alkanes (C13 and C14), which are major components of termiticides, were detected in relatively high concentrations. In the present study, regardless of low vapor pressure of the termiticides, several compounds were detected with the model box experiment. The conclusion that can be drawn is that it is necessary to survey the indoor environmental pollution. |
