1.1 This procedure covers the determination of dioctyl sulfosuccinate (DOSS) in sea water by direct injection using liquid chromatography (LC) and detection with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). This analyte is qualitatively and quantitatively determined by this method. This method adheres to selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mass spectrometry.
1.2 The Detection Verification Level (DVL) and Reporting Range for DOSS are listed in Table 1.
1.2.1 The DVL is required to be at a concentration at least 3 times below the Reporting Limit (RL) and have a signal/noise ratio greater than 3:1. Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 display the signal/noise ratio of the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) transition.
1.2.2 The reporting limit is the concentration of the Level 1 calibration standard as shown in Table 5 for DOSS, taking into account the 50% sample preparation dilution factor.
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
