Abstract
The results of an international interlaboratory method validation stud y were used to revise method performance specifications associated wit h USEPA Method 1613 for the analysis of tetra- through octachlorinated dioxins and furans by high resolution GC/MS. The study used samples p repared from concentrated extracts to evaluate method performance in w astewater effluents. The results demonstrate the general applicability of the method to monitoring the concentrations of these analytes in t he range from 10 to 1000 pg/L.
