| Abstract: | This paper describes the method development and validation for detection of the chemical warfare agents HN-1 and HN-3 in air using C8 solid-phase extraction disks followed by liquid desorption and analysis by gas chromatography. The method is contrasted to the standard approach which uses solid sorbent tubes followed by thermal desorption and analysis by gas chromatography. |
