Standard Test Method for 1,2-Dibromoethane and 1,2-Dibromo-3-Chloropropane in Water by Microextraction and Gas Chromatography

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This test method is useful for the analysis of drinking water and groundwaters. Other waters may be analyzed by this test method, see 1.2.

5.2 EDB and DBCP have been widely used as soil fumigants. EDB is also used as a lead scavenger in leaded gasolines. These compounds are very water soluble and are often found in groundwater and drinking water. Since they are highly toxic and are suspected carcinogens, there is concern about the potential health impact of even extremely low concentrations in potable water.
