Summary 8-2 Telomer B alcohol is^Khallenging analyte because of its volatility and loW ^ater solubility; I low water solubility dictates the need fdKmethods developed at LOQ; extraction solvent choice is critical In achieving tequirei sensitivity, precision, and GC/MS system performance; volatility losses from water are rapid and significant; solvent exchange is not an option, limiting the choices f( sample concentration or/and clean-up; samples should be stored frozen; liP !'<A Summary demonstrated the analytiiaiprocedures for analysis of 8-2 Telomer B alcohol in environmental waters, soils, rat plasma, and tissues; - extracts derived from complex matrices (soit^tissues) require clean-up; - maintaining column performance is critical for re li^ le quantitation and maintaining GC/MS sensitivity; - use of internal standards (especially isotopically labeled^ is critical for accurate quantitation; - use of surrogates is important for accurate quantitation in' biological matrices;
