| Abstract: | Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a common ground and surface water contaminant found in the United States. A validated GC-MS assay for the quantitation of TCE in drinking water is presented here. The limit of quantitation, 5 µg/L, is lower than current validated methods for the analysis of TCE from water. This assay requires a small sample volume, has simple sample preparation, fast run time, high recovery, and reproducible and accurate results. |
