W-010.12.156 [2021-03] Epichlorohydrin in Drinking Water

Application/Purpose

This method describes how to determine the epichlorohydrin content of drinking water using solid-phase extraction.

Scope of Application

Drinking water intended for use as an ingredient in the production of beer (brewing liquor) or other foods

Principle

Epichlorohydrin is separated from a water sample by means of solid-phase extraction and is determined using gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection (MS). Alternatively, an electron capture detector (ECD) can be employed.
