[Gas-chromatographic analysis of dichloropinacoline in the air of the work area and water].

The article narrates on newly developed techniques for the detection of dichlorpinacolin (DCP) in the working zone air. The study was performed on the chromatograph 'Tsvet 164' equipped with a detector of recombination stability (RCS), using Interton-Super as absorbent with phases SE-30.3% (1), OV-17.3% (II), and Carbowax 1500, 5% (III). The lower threshold for determining DCP in the sample volume was 0.001 mkg, in the air--2.5 mu/m3, and in the water--0.025 m/l. The concentration range in the air: 2.5-40.0 mu/m3 (I,III), 2.5-30 mu/m3 (II); in the water: 0.025-0.4 mu/l (I, III) and 0.025-0.3 mu/l (II). Quantitative assessments were performed through the absolute calibrating technique.
