Method PV2094

Hydroquinone


This method is for the collection and anlaysis of hydroquinone from workplace air.  The smaple is collected on a 10% phosphoric acid coated XAD-7 tube.  After collection, the sample is desorbed with methanol and analyzed by GC/FID (flame ionization detector).

NOTE:  This is a partially validated method.
