General description

EPA GRO Mix is a multi-component gasoline range organics (GRO) standard containing certified reference materials (CRMs) such as benzene, ethylbenzene, heptane, 2-methylpentane, toluene, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, o-xylene, and m-xylene. The GRO-like methods are used to quantify volatile analytes and require purge and trap or direct injection.

Application

EPA GRO Mix can be used as a certified reference material (CRM) standard to quantify the volatile organic impurities in inorganic coagulants used in drinking water and human breath samples by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Other Notes

This Certified Reference Material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO 17034 and ISO/IEC 17025. All information regarding the use of this CRM can be found on the certificate of analysis.
