Identification and gas-liquid chromatographic determination of aryl phosphate residues in environmental samples. 1979

P Lombardo, and I J Egry

Aryl phosphates are widely used as flame retardant plasticizers and hydraulic fluids. Laboratory exposures of rainbow trout to a commercial phosphate hydraulic fluid in a flow-through system resulted in substantial biomagnification. Aryl phosphate residues in fish are extracted and cleaned up by the AOAC method for pesticides in fatty foods, and are detected by phosphorus-selective gas-liquid chromatography. Residues of several aryl phosphate mixtures were detected in fish near industrial sites at concentrations ranging from 0.04 to 1 ppm (edible portion basis).

D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.
