28、thod, the followingprocedures must be followed when performing the test method.12.2 Calibration and StandardizationTo calibrate theinstrument, analyze seven calibration standards containing theseven concentration levels of TDG and 3,3-thiodipropanolprior to analysis as shown in Table 2. A calibratio
29、n stockstandard solution is prepared from standard materials orpurchased as certified solutions. Stock standard solution A(Level 7) containing TDG and 3,3-thiodipropanol is preparedat Level 7 concentration and aliquots of that solution arediluted to prepare Levels 1 through 6. The following steps wi
30、llproduce standards with the concentration values shown inTable 2. The analyst is responsible for recording initialcomponent weights carefully when working with pure materi-als and correctly carrying the weights through the dilutioncalculations.12.2.1 Prepare stock standard solution A (Level 7) byad
31、ding to a 100-mL volumetric flask individual methanolsolutions of the following: 250 L of TDG and 3,3-thiodipropanol each at 4 g/L, dilute to 100 mL with water. Thepreparation of the Level 7 standard can be accomplished usingdifferent volumes and concentrations of stock solutions as isaccustomed in
32、the individual laboratory. Depending on stockconcentrations prepared, the solubility at that concentrationwill have to be ensured.12.2.2 Aliquots of Solution A are then diluted with water toprepare the desired calibration levels in 2-mL amber glass LCvials. The calibration vials must be used within
33、24 hours toensure optimum results. Stock calibration standards are rou-tinely replaced every six months if not previously discarded forquality control failure. Calibration standards are not filtered.12.2.3 Inject each standard and obtain a chromatogram foreach one. An external calibration is used mo

The quantitation method is set asan external calibration using the peak areas in ppb or ppm unitsas long as the analyst is consistent. Concentrations may becalculated using the data system software to generat

Forcing the calibra-tion through the origin is not recommended.12.2.5 Linear calibration may be used if the coefficient ofdetermination, r2, is 0.98 for the analyte. The point of originis excluded and a fit weighting of 1/X is used in order to give
38、more emphasis to the lower concentrations. If one of thecalibration standards other than the high or low point causesthe r2of the curve to be 0.99 for the analyte. The point oforigin is excluded and a fit weighting of 1/X is used in order togive more emphasis to the lower concentrations. If one of t
39、hecalibration standards, other than the high or low, causes thecurve to be 0.99. In thisevent, the reporting range must be modified to reflect thischange. Each calibration point used to generate the curve musthave a calculated percent deviation less than 25 % from thegenerated curve.12.2.7 The reten
40、tion time window of the SRM transitionsmust be within 5 % of the retention time of the analyte in amidpoint calibration standard. If this is not the case, re-analyzethe calibration curve to determine if there was a shift inretention time during the analysis and the sample needs to bere-injected. If
41、the retention time is still incorrect in the sample,refer to the analyte as an unknown.12.2.8 A midpoint calibration check standard must be ana-lyzed at the end of each batch of 20 samples or within 24 hoursafter the initial calibration curve was generated. This endcalibration check should be the sa
42、me calibration standard thatwas used to generate the initial curve. The results from the endcalibration check standard must have a percent deviation lessthan 30 % from the calculated concentration for the targetanalyte and surrogate. If the results are not within these criteria,the problem must be c
43、orrected and either; all samples in thebatch must be re-analyzed against a new calibration curve, orthe affected results must be qualified with an indication thatthey do not fall within the performance criteria of the testmethod. If the analyst inspects the vial containing the endcalibration check s
44、tandard and notices that the sample evapo-rated affecting the concentration, a new end calibration checkstandard may be made and analyzed. If this new end calibrationcheck standard has a percent deviation less than 30 % from thecalculated concentration for the target analyte and surrogate theresults
45、 may be reported unqualified.12.3 All samples are prepared using Class A glass volumet-ric glassware. The sample volume used throughout this testmethod is 25 mL. Every sample, the entire 25-mL volume, isfiltered through the filtration device described in Section 7.2only after all required spiking so
46、lutions are added and mixedthroughout the sample.12.3.1 Anew filter unit is used for each sample. The syringemust be cleaned between each filtration. It is the analystsresponsibility to ensure that the syringe is clean. A possibleway of cleaning the syringe between filtrations is first byrinsing wit
47、h at least 5 syringe volumes of water, followed by atleast 3 volumes of acetone, then 3 volumes of methanol andfinally rinsed with water to remove any residual solvent.12.4 If a laboratory has not performed the test before or ifthere has been a major change in the measurement system, forexample, new
48、 analyst, new instrument, etc., perform a preci-sion and bias study to demonstrate laboratory capability.12.4.1 Analyze at least four replicates of a sample solutioncontaining TDG and 3,3-thiodipropanol at a concentration inthe calibration range of Levels 3 to 5.The matrix and chemistryshould be sim

Eachreplicate must be taken through the complete analytical testmethod including any sample preservation and pretreatmentsteps.12.4.2 Calculate the mean (average) percent recovery andrelative standard deviation (RSD) of the four values andcompare to the acceptable ranges of the quality control (QC)acceptance criteria for the Initial Demonstration of Perfor-mance in Table 5.12.4.3 This study should be repeated until the single opera-tor precision and mean recovery are within the limits in Tab
