Ambient air - Determination of the concentration of levoglucosan - Chromatographic method; German version FprCEN/TS 18044:2024
Abstract
This deliverable specifies a chromatographic method for the determination of levoglucosan in aqueous or organic extracts of filter samples collected in accordance with EN 12341:2014. The method has been tested for concentrations of approx. 10 ng/m3 up to approx. 3000 ng/m3 with a sampling duration of 24 hours. The procedure is also suitable for the determination of galactosan and mannosan. Depending on the analysis instrumentation used the carbohydrates inositol, glycerol, threitol/erythritol, xylitol, arabitol, sorbitol, mannitol, threalose, mannose, glucose, galactose, and fructose can also be determined. However, no performance characteristics are given for these compounds in this document.
