1.1This test method2 specifies sampling, cleanup, and analysis procedures for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in ambient air.

1.2This test method is designed to collect both gas-phase and particulate-phase PAH and to determine them collectively.

1.3This test method is a high-volume sampling (100 to 250 L/min) method capable of detecting PAH at sub-nanograms per cubic metre (ng/m3) concentrations with sampling volumes up to 350 m3 of air.

1.4This test method has been validated for sampling periods up to 24 h.

1.5Precision and bias under normal conditions can be expected to be ±35 to 50 %.

1.6This test method describes a sampling and analysis procedure for PAH that involves collection from air on a combination fine-particle filter and sorbent trap and subsequent analysis by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS).

1.7The range of this test method is approximately 0.05 to 1000 ng/m3 of air sampled.

1.8The values stated in SI units shall be regarded as standard.

1.9This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. See also Section 8 for additional safety precautions.
