Popis: | Quinones are reactive organic compounds and are known to initiate reactions associated with many toxicological events. Their presence in air pollution has been demonstrated, but routine quantitative measurements are lacking. A quantitative method for the determination of four quinones was developed using diesel exhaust particles (DEP) and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1649a. The method was then used to analyze ambient air samples from different sites in Southern California. After extraction in dichloromethane, the target compounds were converted to their stable diacetyl derivatives and determined by electron impact GC-MS using selected ion monitoring. Calibration plots were obtained with deuterium-labeled internal standards. The four quinones, 1,2-naphthoquinone (1,2-NQ), 1,4-naphthoquinone (1,4-NQ), 9,10-phenanthraquinone (9,10-PQ), and 9,10-anthraquinone (9,10-AQ), were quantified in DEP, in SRM 1649a, and in ambient air samples of PM2.5 collecte... |
