Analysis of PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS in Groundwater Samples

2 Summary

The 3M Environmental Laboratory received groundwater samples from wells located at the Former 

Sludge Incorporation Area (FSIA) in Decatur, AL, for perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), 

perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHS), and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) analysis under 3M project 

GLP10-01-02-38. A total of seventy-five sample bottles were prepared for thirty-one different sampling 

locations. Due to dry condition, samples were not collected from four of the specified sampling 

locations; DAL GW 136R, DAL GW 137R, DAL GW 138R, and DAL GW 143R. Samples were 

collected November 30 – December 5, 2012 and received from Weston personnel on December 7, 

2012.

The 3M Environmental Laboratory prepared sample containers for thirty-one sampling locations. 

For each sampling location, a minimum of two sample bottles were prepared (primary sample and a 

field sample duplicate). The 3M Environmental Laboratory has demonstrated in previous sampling at 

the FSIA, that Environmental Laboratory Method ETS-8-044.1 is appropriate for the given sample 

matrix, based on acceptable recoveries of target analyte field matrix spikes (FMS). Therefore, for this 

sampling event, a field matrix spike sample was prepared for six of the twenty-seven sampling 

locations collected. In addition, a trip blank set containing Milli-QTM water and appropriate trip blank 

spikes were prepared, as well as two equipment rinseate blanks. The equipment rinseate blanks did 

not have FMS samples prepared for determination of PFBS, PFHS, or PFOS recovery. 

All of the samples were prepared and analyzed for PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS following 3M 

Environmental Laboratory Method ETS-8-044.1. Many of the groundwater samples required dilution to 

attain PFBS, PFHS, and/or PFOS concentrations within the range of the curve, in some instances up to 

100-fold dilution were required. The average measured PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS concentrations are 

summarized in Table 1. The equipment rinseate blanks and the trip blank sample were below the 

lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) for PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS, indicating adequate control of sample 

contamination during shipping and sample collections. 

The PFBS concentration results for all groundwater samples ranged from <0.0250 ng/mL to 68.7

ng/mL. The PFHS concentration results for all groundwater samples ranged from 0.0571 ng/mL to 720

ng/mL. The PFOS concentration results for all groundwater samples ranged from 0.380 ng/mL to 1430

ng/mL. The analytical method uncertainties associated with the reported results using external 

calibration are: PFBS ± 24% and PFHS ± 17%. Samples analyzed using internal calibration for PFOS 

have an analytical method uncertainty of ± 36%.

3 Introduction 

This analytical study was conducted as part of the Phase 3 Environmental Monitoring and Assessment 

Program for the 3M facility located in Decatur, Alabama. The objective of the overall program is to gain 

information regarding concentrations of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), perfluorohexane sulfonate 

(PFHS) and perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), in various environmental media such as groundwater, 

soils and sediments that are associated with and near the Decatur facility. This analytical study was 

conducted to analyze groundwater samples collected from various wells located at the Former Sludge 

Incorporation Area (FSIA) in Decatur, AL for PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS in an effort to characterize onsite groundwater conditions. 

The 3M Environmental Laboratory prepared sample containers (250 mL high-density polyethylene 

bottles) which were shipped to Decatur, AL Weston personnel prior to field sampling. Sample bottle sets 

for each groundwater sampling location included a field sample and field sample duplicate. A field 

matrix spike samples was prepared for six of the twenty-seven sampling locations collected. Each 

empty container for groundwater samplings was marked with a “fill to here” line to produce a final 

sample volume of 200 mL. Containers designated for field matrix samples were fortified with an 

appropriate matrix spike solution containing PFBS (linear), PFHS (linear), and PFOS (linear and 

branched) prior to being sent to the field for sample collection. See section 8.8 of the report for field 

matrix spike levels. 

Samples were prepared and analyzed according to the procedure defined in 3M Environmental 

Laboratory method ETS-8-044.1 “Method of Analysis for the Determination of Perfluorinated 

Compounds In Water by High Performance Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry Direct Injection 

Analysis”. All samples were analyzed for PFOS with the addition of internal standard 13C8-PFOS to

used to aid in the data quality objectives.

Table 1 summarizes the average PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS concentrations for the duplicate samples 

collected, the trip blank, and the aqueous equipment rinseate blank samples. Tables 10-38 summarize 

the individual sample results and the associated field matrix spike recoveries. All results for the quality 

control samples prepared and analyzed with the samples are reported and discussed elsewhere in this 

report.

7 Method Summary

7.1 Methods

Analysis for all analytes was completed following 3M Environmental Laboratory method ETS-8-044.1 

“Method of Analysis for the Determination of Perfluorinated Compounds In Water by High Performance 

Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry Direct Injection Analysis”. 

7.2 Sample Collection

Samples were collected in 250 mL NalgeneTM (high-density polyethylene) bottles prepared at the 3M 

Environmental Laboratory. Sample bottles associated with GLP10-01-02-38 were returned to the 

laboratory at ambient conditions on December 7, 2012. Samples were stored refrigerated at the 

laboratory after receipt. A set of laboratory prepared Trip Blank and Trip Blank field matrix spikes were 

sent with the sample collection bottles.

7.3 Sample Preparation

Samples were prepared by removing an aliquot of the well mixed sample and placing it in an autovial for 

analysis. 

A number of the sampling locations required dilution. Samples were prepared by diluting 1 mL sample 

with 9 mLs of Milli-QTM water (dilution 1:10). Samples requiring a 1:100 dilution were prepared by 

diluting 0.1 mL of sample with 9.9 mLs of Milli-QTM water

Samples were analyzed for PFOS using internal standard calibraton. The samples were prepared by 

adding an aliquot of an internal standard spiking solution to an aliquot of the sample or diluted sample 

(nominal concentration of 1 ng/mL). Laboratory control samples were prepared in a similar manner.

8 Analytical Results

8.1 Calibration

8.1.1 External standard calibration

Samples were analyzed for PFBS and PFHS against an external standard calibration curve. Calibration 

standards were prepared by spiking known amounts of the stock solution containing the target analytes 

into prepared in Milli-QTM water. A total of fifteen spiked standards ranging from 0.025 ng/mL to 100 

ng/mL (nominal) were analyzed. A quadratic, 1/x weighted, calibration curve of the peak area counts 

was used to fit the data for each analyte. The data were not forced through zero during the fitting 

process. Calculating the standard concentrations using the peak area confirmed accuracy of each curve 

point. 

8.1.2 Internal standard calibration

Samples were analyzed for PFOS using a stable isotope internal standard calibration curve. Calibration 

standards were prepared by spiking known amounts of the stock solution containing the target analytes 

into a laboratory reagent water. A separate internal standard spiking solution was prepared and an 

aliquot was added at the same level to all calibration standards at a nominal concentration of 1 ng/mL. 

A calibration curve ranging from 0.025 ng/mL to 100 ng/mL (nominal) was analyzed. A quadratic, 1/x 

weighted, calibration curve of the peak area ratio was used to fit the data for PFOS. The data were not 

forced through zero during the fitting process. Calculating the standard concentrations using the peak 

area ratios and the resultant calibration curve confirmed accuracy of each curve point. 

For both external and internal standard calibration, each curve point was quantitated using the overall 

calibration curve and reviewed for accuracy. Method calibration accuracy requirements of 100±25% 

(100±30% for the lowest curve point) were met for all analytes. The correlation coefficient (r) was 

greater than 0.995 for all analytes.

8.2 System Suitability

A calibration standard was analyzed four times at the beginning of each analytical sequence to 

demonstrate overall system suitability. The acceptance criteria of less than or equal to 5% relative 

standard deviation (RSD) for peak area or peak area ratio and retention time criteria of less than or 

equal to 2% RSD was met for PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS.

8.3 Limit of Quantitation (LOQ)

The LOQ for this analysis is the lowest non-zero calibration standard in the curve that meets linearity 

and accuracy requirements and for which the area counts or area ratio are at least twice those of the 

appropriate blanks. The LOQ for all analytes can be found in Table 6.

8.4 Continuing Calibration 

During the course of each analytical sequence, continuing calibration verification samples (CCVs) were 

analyzed to confirm that the instrument response and the initial calibration curve were still in control. All 

CCVs met method criteria of 100% ± 25% for PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS. 

8.5 Blanks

Three types of blanks were prepared and analyzed with the samples: solvent blanks, trip blanks, and 

equipment rinseate blanks. Solvent blank results were reviewed and used to evaluate method 

performance to determine the LOQ for PFBS, PFHS, and PFOS. Trip blanks reflect the shipping and 

sample collection conditons the sample bottles and samples experience. Equipment rinseate blanks 

are aqueous samples that reflect the efficiency of equipment cleaning in the field between different 

sample collections and are proof of no cross contamination of samples from the equipment.

8.6 Lab Control Spikes (LCSs) 

Low, mid, and high-level lab control spikes were prepared and analyzed in triplicate with each 

preparation set. LCSs analyzed with the sample dilutions by external standard calibration were 

prepared by spiking known amounts of PFBS and PFHS into Milli-QTM water to produce the desired 

concentration. LCSs analyzed by internal standard calibration were prepared by spiking known 

amounts of PFOS into laboratory reagen water and adding an aliquot of a separate internal standard 

spiking solution at a nominal concentration of 1 ng/mL. 

The method acceptance criteria, average of LCS at each level should be within 100% ± 20% with an 

RSD ≤20%, were met for all LCS samples with the exception of the low level LCSs for PFOS, which had 

an overall average recovery of 127%. A method deviation is included with the raw data. All LCSs were 

used in the determination of the analytical method uncertainty in section 8.7.

8.7 Analytical Method Uncertainty

Analytical uncertainty is based on historical QC data that is control charted and used to evaluate 

method accuracy and precision. The method uncertainty is calculated following ETS-12-012.2. The 

standard deviation is calculated for the set of accuracy results (in %) obtained for the QC samples. The 

method uncertainty is calculated by multiplying the standard deviation by a factor of 2, which 

corresponds to a confidence level of 95%. The most recent 50 data points were used to generate the 

method uncertainty values listed in Table 8. 

Table 8. Analytical Uncertainty.

Analyte Calibration Standard Deviation Method Uncertainty

PFBS External 11.9 ±24%

PFHS External 8.48 ±17%

PFOS Internal 17.8 ±36%

8.8 Field Matrix Spikes (FMS)

A field matrix spike (FMS) was collected at six sampling locations to verify that the analytical method is 

applicable to the collected matrix. Field matrix spikes were generated by adding a measured volume of 

field sample to a container spiked by the laboratory with PFBS (linear), PFHS (linear), and PFOS (linear 

and branched) prior to shipping sample containers for sample collection. Field matrix spike recoveries 

within method acceptance criteria of 100±30% confirm that “unknown” components in the sample matrix 

do not significantly interfere with the extraction and analysis of the analytes of interest. Field matrix spike 

concentrations must be 50% of the sample concentration to be considered an appropriate field spike. 

Field matrix spikes are presented in section 9 of this report.

9 Data Summary and Discussion

The tables below summarize the sample results and field matrix spike recoveries for the sampling 

locations as well as the Trip Blanks and rinseate blanks. Results and average values are rounded to 

three significant figures according to EPA rounding rules. Because of rounding, values may vary slightly 

from those listed in the raw data. Field matrix spike recoveries meeting the method acceptance criteria 

of ± 30%, demonstrate that the method was appropriate for the given matrix and their respective 

quantitative ranges. 

DAL GW 136S – The recovery of the FMS sample for PFOS was 58.5%. Based on the recovery of the 

FMS sample, the analytical uncertainty has been expanded for PFOS to ± 42%. 

Due to the limited number of FMS samples prepared, the overall average FMS recovery was calculated 

to determine whether the analytical uncertainty should be expanded for all sampling locations. The 

overall average FMS recovery was determined to be 84.9%. Since the overall average FMS recovery 

was greater than 70%, meeting the acceptance criteria of ± 30%, the method uncertainty will only be 

expanded for sampling location DAL GW 136S. 

DAL GW 130L – The sample/sample duplicate RPD was 22% for PFOS.

DAL GW 141R – The sample FMS was not appropriate to assess recovery for PFOS.

Method of Analysis for the Determination of Perfluorinated Compounds in Water by LC/MS/MS; 

Direct Injection Analysis

1 Scope and Application

This method describes the direct injection analysis of perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) from 

water matrices using high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry 

(HPLC/MS/MS). The method is generally applicable but not limited to the measurement of 

perfluoroalkyl sulfonamides and perfluorinated alkyl acids (PFAAs) such as perfluorosulfonic 

acids (PFSAs) and perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs) (Table 1). Water samples containing 

heavy particulate may require preparation by an alternate method such as ETS-8-154 

“Determination of Perfluorinated Acids, Alcohols, Amides, and Sulfonates In Water By Solid 

Phase Extraction and High Performance Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry”. The 

method is applicable to both external standard and internal standard calibration1

The Minimum Reporting Level (MRL) is the Limit of Quantitation (LOQ) that meets Data 

Quality Objectives (DQOs) that are developed based on the intended use of this method. 

Method Flexibility – This is a performance-based method and may be generally applied to the 

determination of perfluorinated compounds in water matrices when analysis batch quality 

control (QC) criteria are met2

. Each set of samples are prepared in an analysis batch with 

calibration standards, LCSs, blanks, and continuing calibration check standards analyzed on 

the same instrument during a time period that begins and ends with the analysis of the 

appropriate continuing calibration check standards. The laboratory is permitted to modify the 

LC column, mobile phase composition, LC conditions, and MS/MS conditions. Method 

modifications should be considered to improve method performance or to meet data quality 

objectives for the study. In all cases where method modifications are implemented, the batch 

 

1 The method is supported by validation with internal standard calibration for C4-C13 PFCAs, C4, C6, and C8 PFSAs, 

and C8 perfluoroalkane sulfonamide in laboratory control samples under 3M method validation E11-0667.

2 Guidance for establishing method QC Criteria based on a.) FDA May 2001, “Guidance for Industry, Bioanalytical 

Method Validation”, b.) EPA Method 537, and c.) European Commission: Guidance for Generating and Reporting 

Methods of Analysis in Support of Pre-registration Data Requirements for Annex II (Part A, section 4) and Annex III 

(Part A,section 5) of Directive 91/414, SANCO/3029/99 rev. 4 (11/07/00).

analytical QCs (section 9) must be completed and pass QC acceptance criteria (section 13) if 

the data from the analytical batch are to be reported. 

2 Method Summary

Water samples are analyzed as neat aqueous sample or as solvent diluted aqueous samples 

by direct injection using LC/MS/MS. Samples containing heavy particulate may not be 

suitable for analysis by this method. Samples containing suspended particulate should be 

centrifuged or filtered prior to removing a sample aliquot or diluting with solvent. The water 

sample is mixed well prior to removing an aliquot or diluting, if necessary, with ASTM Type I 

water, HPLC water, other suitable water, or solvent (methanol). 

Quantitation is by stable isotope internal standard calibration in laboratory reagent water. All 

perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) target analyte concentrations of perfluorosulfonic acids 

(PFSAs) and perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs) are reported as anions and corrected for 

their salt or free acid forms. Alternatively, quantitation may be performed by external 

standard calibration. 

This is a performance-based method. Method uncertainty for each target analyte is 

determined for each analytical batch using multiple laboratory control spikes at multiple 

concentrations. This method also requires that the precision and accuracy for each sample 

be determined using field matrix spikes to verify that the method is applicable to each sample 

matrix. 

Calibration standards for PFUnA, PFDoA, PFTrDA, and FOSA have been found to be 

unstable for more than 2 days in 100% water. Samples requiring analysis for these 

compounds by this method should be diluted 1:1 with methanol and analyzed against a 

calibration curve prepared in 1:1 synthetic groundwater:MeOH.

3 Definitions 

3.1 Analysis Batch 

A set of study samples that are prepared with calibration standards, laboratory control 

samples, and procedural blanks, and analyzed on the same instrument during a time period 

that begins and ends with the analysis of the appropriate continuing calibration check 

standards.

3.2 Analytical Sample 

A portion of a laboratory sample prepared for analysis.

3.3 Calibration Standard

A solution prepared by spiking a known volume of the Working Standard (WS) into a 

predetermined amount of ASTM Type I, HPLC grade water, or other suitable water (i.e. 

matrix water), and analyzed according to this method. Calibration standards are used to 

calibrate the instrument response with respect to analyte concentration.

3.4 Laboratory Duplicate Sample (LDS, or Lab Dup)

A laboratory duplicate sample is a separate aliquot of a sample taken in the analytical 

laboratory that is analyzed separately with identical procedures. Analysis of LDSs compared 

to that of the first aliquot give a measure of the precision associated with laboratory 

procedures, but not with sample collection, preservation, or storage procedures.

3.5 Field Blank (FB)/Trip Blank (TB)

ASTM Type I, HPLC grade water, or other suitable water, placed in a sample container in the 

laboratory and treated as a sample in all respects, including exposure to sampling site 

conditions, storage, preservation and all analytical procedures. The purpose of the TB is to 

determine if test substances or other interferences are present in the field environment. This 

sample is also referred to as a Trip Blank. 

3.6 Field Duplicate Sample (FDS, Field Dup)

A sample collected in duplicate at the same time from the same location as the sample. The 

FDS is handled under identical circumstances and treated exactly the same throughout field 

and laboratory procedures. Analysis of the FDS compared to that of the first sample gives a 

measure of the precision associated with sample collection, preservation and storage, as well 

as with laboratory procedures.

3.7 Field Matrix Spike (FMS)

A sample to which known quantities of the target analytes, ISs and SRSs are added to the 

sample bottle in the laboratory before the bottles are sent to the field for collection of aqueous 

samples. A known, specific volume of sample must be added to the sample container 

without rinsing. This may be accomplished by making a “fill to this level” line on the outside of 

the sample container. The FMS is analyzed to ascertain if any matrix effects, interferences, 

or stability issues may complicate the interpretation of the sample analysis.

3.8 Trip Blank Matrix Spike (TBMS) 

An aliquot of ASTM Type I, HPLC grade water, or other suitable water, to which known 

quantities of the target analytes, ISs and SRSs are added in the laboratory prior to the 

shipment of the collection bottles. The TBMS is analyzed exactly like a study sample to help 

determine if the method is in control and whether a loss of analyte or analytical bias could be 

attributed to sample holding time, sample storage and/or shipment issues. A low and high 

TBMS are appropriate when expected sample concentrations are not known or may vary.

3.9 Internal Standard (IS)

A compound added to each study sample, calibration standard, laboratory control samples, 

and procedural blanks at a consistent level (typically around 1 ng/mL). The internal 

standard(s) are stable isotope labeled versions of the target analytes. The area count ratio of 

the target analyte to the internal standard is used for calibration. Surrogate ISs are applied 

when stable isotope ISs of target analytes are unavailable. A surrogate IS is not necessarily 

a stable isotope labeled version of the target analyte, but is treated as an internal standard for 

quantitation.

3.10 Laboratory Control Sample (LCS)

An aliquot of control matrix to which known quantities of the target analytes, ISs and SRSs

(when applicable) are added in the laboratory at the time when samples are aliquotted. At 

least three levels (two levels for SRSs) in triplicate are included, one generally at the low end 

of the calibration curve and one near the mid range and the upper end of the curve. The 

LCSs are analyzed exactly like a laboratory sample to determine whether the stability of the 

standards. LCSs should be prepared each day samples are aliquoted. 

3.11 Laboratory Matrix Spike (LMS)

A laboratory matrix spike is an aliquot of a sample to which known quantities of target 

analytes, ISs and SRSs (when applicable) are added in the laboratory. The LMS is analyzed 

exactly like a laboratory sample to determine whether the sample matrix contributes bias to 

the analytical results. The endogenous concentrations of the analytes in the sample matrix 

must be determined in a separate aliquot and the measured values in the LMS corrected for 

these concentrations. LMSs are optional for analysis of aqueous samples.

3.12 Laboratory Sample

A portion or aliquot of a sample received from the field for testing.

3.13 Limit of Quantitation (LOQ)

The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) for an analytical batch is the lowest concentration that 

can be reliably quantitated within the specified limits of precision and accuracy. The LLOQ is 

generally selected as the lowest non-zero standard in the calibration curve that meets method 

acceptance criteria. The LLOQ for each target analyte is established for each analysis batch 

as the lowest calibration standard with area counts at least twice that of the average area 

counts of the procedural blanks.

The upper limit of quantitation (ULOQ) for an analytical batch is the highest concentration that 

can be reliably quantitated within the specified limits of precision and accuracy. The highest 

standard in the calibration curve that meets method acceptance criteria is defined as the 

ULOQ.

3.14 Method/Procedural Blank

An aliquot of control matrix that is treated exactly like a laboratory sample including exposure 

to all glassware, equipment, solvents, and reagents that are used with other laboratory 

samples. The method blank is used to determine if test substances or other interferences are 

present in the laboratory environment, the reagents, or the apparatus.

3.15 Sample

A sample is an aliquot removed from a larger quantity of material intended to represent the 

original source material.

3.16 Stock Standard Solution (SSS)

A concentrated solution of a single-analyte prepared in the laboratory with an assayed 

reference compound.

3.17 Surrogate Internal Standard

An IS that is not necessarily a stable isotopically labeled target analyte, but is treated as an 

internal standard for quantitation. Surrogate ISs are used when isotopically labeled 

counterparts of the target analyte are not commercially or readily available.

3.18 Surrogate Recovery Standard (SRS)

An isotopically labeled standard, not used as an internal standard, that is added to each 

sample and appropriate QC sample as a means to evaluate the method performance for a 

chemical class of compounds (e.g., PFSAs, PFCAs). 

3.19 Working Standard (WS)

A solution of several analytes prepared in the laboratory from SSSs and diluted as needed to 

prepare calibration standards and other required analyte solutions.

7.4 Stock Standard Solution (SSS) and Working Standard Solution 

Preparation

The following standard preparation procedure serves as an example. Weighed amounts and 

final volumes may be changed to suit the needs of a particular study. For example, μL 

volumes may be spiked into volumetric flasks when diluting stock solutions to appropriate 

levels.

100 μg/mL target analyte SSSs—Weigh out 10 mg of analytical standard (corrected for 

percent salt, acid [ETS-4-031] and purity) and dilute to 100 mL with methanol or other 

suitable solvent, in a 100 mL volumetric flask. Transfer to a 125 mL LDPE bottle or other 

suitable container. Prepare a separate solution for each analyte. Expiration dates and 

storage conditions of stock solutions should be assigned in accordance with laboratory 

standard operating procedure. An example of purity and salt correction is given below for 

PFOS.

10 μg/mL (10,000 ng/mL) mixed working standard—Add 5.0 mL each of the 100 μg/mL 

SSSs to a 50 mL volumetric flask and bring up to volume with solvent. 

1 μg/mL (1,000 ng/mL) mixed working standard—Add 0.5 mL of the 100 μg/mL SSSs to a 

50 mL volumetric flask and bring up to volume with solvent. 

0.1 μg/mL (100 ng/mL) mixed standard—Add 0.05 mL of the 100 μg/mL SSSs to a 50 mL 

volumetric flask and bring up to volume with solvent. 

Storage Conditions—Store all SSSs and working standards in accordance with laboratory 

standard operating procedure or in a refrigerator at 4°±2°C for a maximum period of 6 months 

from the date of preparation.

7.5 Calibration Standards

Calibration can be performed by IS or external calibration. Using the working standards 

described above, prepare calibration solutions in ASTM Type I water, HPLC water, other 

suitable water, or a mixture of solvent and water using the information in Table 2 as a 

guideline. Note: Volumes of water or water/solvent mixtures and working standards may be 

adjusted to meet the data quality objectives addressed in the general project outline. 

Calibration levels other than those listed below can be prepared as needed.

For the quantitation of PFOA and PFOS, reference materials of certified mixed linear and 

branched isomer are preferred. Alternately, reference materials of primarily linear isomers of 

PFOA and/or PFOS may be used, however, when quantitating with predominantly linear 

reference standards, additional LCS samples containing both linear and branched isomers of 

PFOA and PFOS are required3

. 

7.5.1 Internal Standard (IS) and Surrogate Recovery Standard (SRS) 

For IS calibration, stable isotope internal standards of each target analyte or appropriate 

surrogate ISs should be spiked at the same level in all calibration standards. Once the 

calibration standards have been prepared as stated above in Section 7.5, all calibration 

standards are spiked with a separate internal standard spiking solution. Typically the

Direct Injection Analysis

concentration of the internal standard is consistent with the internal standard concentration 

expected in the samples being prepared, usually 1 ng/mL. The concentration of the internal 

standard spiking solution is typically 2 μg/mL. A separate zero point or method blank is 

typically prepared at the same time as the calibration standards, using the same solution 

used to prepare the standards (ASTM Type I water, HPLC water, other suitable water, or a 

solvent/water mixture), and is spiked with the internal standard at the same concentration as 

the calibration curve, typically at 1 ng/mL. 

If the samples being analzyed were pre-spiked with SRSs, the calibration curve prepared in 

Section 7.5 is spiked with a separate SRS spiking solution. Typically, the sample bottles are 

spiked with a SRS at 0.1 ng/mL. The final calibration curve must consist of at least six 

calibration points after analysis. The following table provides an example of spike 

concentrations and volumes used to achieve a multi-point extracted calibration curve with 

internal standard and surrogate standard.

target compounds. A custom mix of isotopically labeled target analytes in a methanolic 

solution containing ([1,2,3,4-

13C5]PFPeA, 

([1,2,3,4-

13C4]PFHpA, and [18O2]PFBS can be used to prepare a stock IS solution. 

Alternative sources of certified stable isotope labeled target analytes are applicable. 

Alternatively, individual stable isotope ISs can be used to prepare a stock IS mixture. The 

table below lists the recommended stable isotope ISs and SRSs applied in the method. 

Other stable isotope ISs and SRSs of target analytes not listed in the table may be used if 

supported by validation and/or analysis batch QCs meeting method acceptance criteria (e.g., 

[

13C2]-PFOA). The same internal standard should be used for a given analyte throughout the 

entire project/study. Note: some of the compounds listed below are appropriate to use as 

surrogate ISs when a stable isotope IS of a target analyte is not available. Generally, 

surrogate isotopically labeled PFCAs are used for PFCAs, and surrogate isotopically labeled 

PFSAs are used for PFSAs.

Table 2 provides examples of spike concentrations and volumes used to achieve a multi-point 

calibration curve with ISs and SRSs.

Analysis

8 Sample Collection and Bottle Preparation

Sample collection bottles are prepared by 3M Environmental Laboratory (or subcontract supplier) personnel for 

shipment at ambient temperature to the collection site. Typically, four separate collection bottles are 

associated with a single collection site: sample, field duplicate sample, low field matrix spike, and high field 

matrix spike. Alternatively, the sample and field duplicate sample may contain SRSs in lieu of additional target 

analyte low field matrix spike and target analyte high field matrix spike samples. Depending on the scope of 

the project, additional replicates of the field sample and field matrix spikes may be added. Also, it is not 

uncommon for additional mid-level field matrix spikes to be collected if the expected sample concentrations are 

truly unknown or could span a large concentration range. 

High-density polyethylene (HDPE) wide-mouth Nalgene bottles are used for the sample collection containers. 

(Volumes of the bottles may vary depending on how much sample is required to meet data quality objectives.) 

Sample collection volumes are project specific and based on data quality objectives. The Nalgene bottles do 

not require any pretreatment prior to use. Typically, placement of a sample bottle volumetric “fill to here” line is 

done by using a sample bottle marker template. Alternatively, bottles may be weighed prior to bottle 

preparation and weighed again after samples have been collected.

All bottles should be clearly labeled to indicate its intended use as a sample, field sample duplicate, low field 

matrix spike, high field matrix spike, sample/SRS field matrix spike, field duplicate sample/SRS field matrix 

spike, trip blank, or trip blank matrix spike. If each location has different designated spike levels, the label 

should also clearly indicate the sample location designation. Generally, a set of bottles for a given collection 

site are prepared then grouped together in plastic bags for organizational purposes. For each sample 

collection event, at least one set of trip blank and trip blank matrix spikes are prepared. 

Bottle preparation should be documented in a Note to File or on a sample preparation worksheet and should 

include the following information: date prepared, total number of bottles prepared, number of sample sites, the 

standard identification numbers and spike volumes used to prepare spiked bottles, the “fill to here” volume, and 

any other pertinent information needed for reconstructibility of the data. The Note to File will be included in the 

final data package for the project. 

Samples are collected in the field and shipped to the laboratory at ambient temperature.

8.1 Field Matrix Spike Sample (FMS)

Field matrix spike samples are a requirement of the method. A FMS sample is defined as a QC sample to 

which known quantities of appropriate target analytes are added to the sample bottle in the field or in the 

laboratory before the bottles are sent to the field. The sample and field duplicate sample may contain 

appropriate SRSs in lieu of target analyte FMS samples. Sample quantities are determined volumetrically or 

gravimetrically. A known, specific volume or weight of sample is added to the sample container without

rinsing. Volumetric sample measurements may be acquired by a laboratory applied “fill to this level” line on the 

outside of the sample container. Target analyte FMS samples should be spiked at approximately 0.5-10 times 

the expected analyte concentration in the sample. If the expected range of analyte concentrations is unknown, 

multiple spikes at varying levels may be prepared to increase the likelihood that a spike at an appropriate level 

is made. Typically a low and a high target analyte spike are prepared for each sampling location. In those 

instances where SRSs are to be used in lieu of target analyte FMS samples, the sample and field duplicate 

sample are spiked at approximately 2-5 times the target LOQ. The FMS is analyzed to ascertain if matrix 

effects or sample holding time contributes bias to the analytical results. For the sample bottles designated for 

matrix spikes, an appropriate volume of matrix spiking solution is added to the empty bottle prior to sampling. 

The volume of spike solution added should produce the desired final concentration of target analytes once the 

bottle is filled with sample to the “fill to here line”. The matrix spiking solution(s) should be prepared in a 

suitable solvent and contain all of the appropriate target analytes, ISs, and SRSs. The target analyte matrix 

spiking solution is often the same as the working standards used to create the calibration standards. An 

example of a bottle spike is given below.

“Fill to here” volume = 200 mL (A 250 mL Nalgene bottle is used)

Desired Field Spike Concentration = 0.25 ng/mL

Analysis

500 μL of a 0.1 μg/mL spiking solution (containing the target analytes) is added to the bottle and the bottle cap 

promptly sealed.

8.2 Internal Standard and Surrogate Recovery Standard 

If analysis of a surrogate recovery standard (SRS) is included in the project objectives, an appropriate volume 

of a surrogate standard solution is added to all the bottles prior to sampling and SPE. Typically sample bottles 

are spiked with surrogate recovery standards at a final desired spike concentration of 0.1 ng/mL.

If quantitation by internal standard (IS) is included in the project objective, an appropriate volume of internal 

standard solution is added to all the bottles prior to sampling and SPE. Typically sample bottles are spiked 

with internal standard at a final desired spike concentration of 1 ng/mL.

For the trip blank, the SRS spike and IS spike is added to the bottle and then ASTM Type I water (HPLC grade 

reagent water or other suitable water may used) is added to the “fill to here” line. The bottle is capped and 

sealing tape may be placed around the outer edge of the cap. Trip blank matrix spikes are prepared by adding 

the appropriate volume of target analyte spiking solution, IS, and SRS spiking solutions and filling the bottle to 

the desired volume with the appropriate water and capping and sealing the cap.

9 Quality Control and Data Quality Objectives

9.1 Data Quality Objectives

This method and required quality control samples is designed to generate data accurate to ±30% with a 

targeted LOQ of 0.025 ng/mL. Any deviations from the quality control measures spelled out below will be 

documented in the raw data and footnoted in the final report.

9.2 Method/Procedural Blanks

The method/procedural blank is zero point calibration standard (which includes ISs) analyzed in a regular basis 

with each analysis batch. At a minimum, method blanks are analyzed prior to instrument calibration, prior to 

the analysis of CCV samples, after every 10 sample injections, and at the end of the analytical run.

The mean area count or area ratios when using internal standard calibration, for each analyte in the method 

blanks must be less than 50% of the area count counts or area ratios when using internal standard calibration, 

of the LOQ standard. The standard deviation of the area counts, or area ratios when using internal standard 

calibration, of these method blanks should be calculated. A specific %RSD acceptance criteria is not specified 

but is assessed on an analytical batch basis. If the mean area counts or area ratios when using internal 

standard calibration, of the method blanks exceed 50% of the LOQ standard, then the LOQ must be raised to 

the first standard level in the curve that meets criteria. Method blanks may be eliminated if technical 

justification can be provided (e.g. the procedural blank was analyzed after an unexpectedly high level sample). 

If any procedural blanks are removed from the LOQ determination, document in the raw data and report as 

appropriate. Laboratory Sample Replicates / Field Duplicate Sample 

Typically, samples are collected in duplicates in the field. The relative percent difference (RPD) of duplicate 

samples should be ≤20% for the precision of sample preparation and analysis to be considered in control. 

Replicate samples not meeting the ≤20% RPD criteria are flagged and reported as outside of QC acceptance 

criteria.

9.3 Laboratory Matrix Spikes (LMSs)

LMSs may be performed in lieu of FMSs if FMSs have previously been performed for the sample matrix. 

Additionally, LMSs may be performed in lieu of FMSs for a sample matrix if the FMS levels were not 

appropriate for determining spike recoveries relative to endogenous levels of target analytes and appropriate 

SRSs. Generally, each sample location represents a different sample and sample matrix. LMSs are prepared 

for each sample and analyzed to determine the matrix effect on spike recovery efficiency of each target analyte 

and appropriate SRSs. LMSs should be prepared at a minimum of one level and in duplicate. LMS 

concentrations should be prepared at approximately 0.5-10 times the endogenous concentration or 

approximately 4-10 times the LOQ concentration of each target analyte.

Analysis

Lab matrix spike recoveries should fall within ± 30% of expected values. Sample data with LMS recovery 

outside of ±30% but within ±50% of the expected value are flagged and reported as outside of QC acceptance 

criteria. Data with LMS recovery outside of ±50% of the expected value are reported as NR, where NR is 

defined as “Not Reportable” data outside of QC acceptance criteria.

9.4 Lab Control Sample

Lab control spikes are prepared for each analysis batch to determine method accuracy and precision. LCSs 

should be prepared at three levels in triplicate for each target analyte and at a minimum of two levels in 

triplicate for appropriate SRSs. Low lab control spikes should be prepared at a concentration in the range of 

approximately four to ten times higher than the targeted lower LOQ, the mid lab control spikes should be 

prepared at a concentration near the mid-point of the calibration curve and the high lab control spikes at 

approximately 80% of the upper LOQ. For each target analyte and SRSs, the percent relative standard 

deviation (method precision) for each control spike level must be less than or equal to 20% and the average 

recovery (method accuracy) for each control spike level must be 80-120%. Sample data for target analytes 

outside of the laboratory control spike acceptance criteria will be handled as follows:

If the average recovery of a spiking level falls outside method acceptance, but at least 67% (6 out of 9) of LCS 

samples are within 20% of their respective nominal value (33% of the QC samples, not all replicates at the 

same concentration, may be outside 20% of nominal value), the average recovery will be flagged as outside 

method acceptance criteria. All LCS samples will be control charted as per ETS-4-026. If the average 

recovery of one of the spiking levels exceeded the analytical method uncertainty as determined by ETS-12-

012, that analytical batch uncertainty will be expanded for that particular study.

If more than 67% of the LCS samples fail to meet method acceptance criteria, the data will not be reported. 

Calibration standards consisting of mixed branched and linear isomer PFOS/PFOA are preferred. However, 

for PFOS/PFOA target analytes, if the calibration standards are comprised of predominantly linear isomers 

only, at least one level of triplicate LCSs should be prepared using PFOS/PFOA which contains a mix of linear 

and branched isomers. These LCSs will be used to demonstrate quantitative equivalency (or quantitative bias) 

of the isomeric mix when using a predominantly linear standard for calibration. The mixed linear and branched 

isomer PFOS/PFOA LCSs recoveries should fall within ± 30% of expected values. Alternatively, in lieu of 

mixed branched and linear isomer PFOS/PFOA LCSs, mixed branched and linear isomer PFOS/PFOA 

TBMSs may be applied to demonstrate method accuracy and precision.

9.5 Field Matrix Spikes (FMSs) / Surrogate Recovery Standards (SRSs)

FMSs are prepared for each sampling location and analyzed to determine the matrix effect and sample holding 

time on the spike recovery of each target analyte and/or appropriate SRS. Generally, each sample location 

represents a different sample and sample matrix. 

FMSs are QC samples to which known quantities of appropriate target analytes are added to the sample bottle 

in the laboratory before the bottles are sent to the field. Typically a low and a high target analyte FMS are 

prepared for each sampling location. The sample and field duplicate sample may contain appropriate SRSs in 

lieu of target analyte low field matrix spike and target analyte high field matrix spike samples. 

Field matrix spike method acceptance criteria are recoveries within ±30% of the expected value. If FMS 

recovery (target analyte or SRS spike) is outside of ±30% of the expected value or could not be assessed 

because the FMS (target analyte) was spiked at an inappropriate level, the sample result is reported as follows: 

1.) If target analyte FMS recovery could not be assessed because the FMS's were at an inappropriate level, 

then Laboratory Matrix Spikes (LMS) may be substituted. If LMS recoveries are within ±30% the data are 

reportable and flagged to indicate that the FMS spikes levels were inappropriate.

2.) If multiple target analyte FMS's were prepared on a sample and the closest FMS level to the reported 

sample meets the ±30% acceptance criteria but additional FMS's are outside the ±30% acceptance range, the 

data are reportable and flagged to indicate that while there were failing FMS’s, the uncertainty will not be 

expanded since the most appropriate spike level passed.

Analysis

3.) If the target analyte FMS recoveries are outside of the ±30% acceptance range but at least 30 acceptable 

historical reportable FMS sample results are available, the data may be reported but flagged with an expanded 

uncertainty and as not meeting FMS criteria.

4.) Sample data with FMS recovery outside of ±30% but within ±50% of the expected value are flagged and 

reported as outside of QC acceptance criteria with an expanded uncertainty.

5.) If FMS recovery is outside of ±50%, the sample result is reported as NR, where NR is defined as “Not 

Reportable” due to noncompliant QC results. 

The targeted fortification levels should be at least 50% of the endogenous level and less than 10 times the 

endogenous level to be used without justification to determine the statement of accuracy for analytical results.

Note: It is possible for bottles utilized for Field Matrix Spike samples to be under-filled or over-filled during 

sample collection. Since this scenario will effect the actual concentration of the FMS sample (surrogate and 

internal standard concentrations will also be effected, if used), it is important that any obvious under-filling or 

over-filling of sample bottles be documented in the data package and taken into account in the FMS, ISs, or 

SRSs recovery calculations. Samples over-filled or under-filled by more than 10% will be require recalculation 

of the FMS, ISs, and SRS true values.

The average of the sample and the field duplicate should be used to calculate the recovery.

10 Procedures

10.1 Water Sample Preparation

This method is applicable to water samples. Samples containing heavy particulate may not be suitable for 

analysis by this method. Samples containing suspended particulate should be centrifuge prior to removing a 

sample aliquot, or filtered. 

• Thoroughly mix sample before removing an aliquot and placing in a labeled autovial. 

• Dilute sample, if necessary, with ASTM Type I water, HPLC water, other suitable water, or solvent 

(methanol). 

• Lab control spikes are prepared for each analysis batch to determine method accuracy and precision. 

LCSs should be prepared at three levels in triplicate for each target analyte and at a minimum of two 

levels in triplicate for appropriate SRSs. Low lab control spikes should be prepared at a concentration 

in the range of approximately four to ten times higher than the targeted lower LOQ, the mid lab control 

spikes should be prepared at a concentration near the mid-point of the calibration curve and the high

lab control spikes at approximately 80% of the upper LOQ. For IS quantitation, stable isotope internal 

standards of each target analyte or appropriate surrogate ISs should be spiked at the same level as the 

samples being analyzed, in all LCSs. 

• If LCSs are being prepared using synthetic groundwater, allow the LCSs samples to equilibrate for a 

minimum of 4 hours before aliquoting for analysis or diluting with solvent (methanol).

11 Sample Analysis - LC/MS/MS

11.1 Instrument Setup

Note: In this example, an Applied Biosystems Sciex API 4000 (API 5000 or API 5500) Tandem Mass 

Spectrometer (LC/MS/MS) is used. Other brands/models of LC/MS/MS instruments as well as single 

quadrupole mass spectrometers (LC/MS) may be used as long as the method acceptance criteria are met. 

Brand names, suppliers, part numbers, and models are for illustrative purposes only. Equivalent performance 

may be achieved using apparatus and materials other than those specified here, but demonstration of 

equivalent performance that meets the requirements of this method is the responsibility of the laboratory. The 

operator must optimize and document the equipment and settings used.

Multiple transitions for monitoring the analytes is an option. The use of one daughter ion is acceptable if data 

sensitivity and selectivity is achieved and provided that retention time criteria are met to assure adequate 

specificity. While the daughter ions may be chosen at the discretion of the analyst, mass transition 99 is 

suggested for PFOS. Quantitation may be performed using the total ion chromatogram (TIC, or summed 

MRMs) for a given analyte. For example, the PFOA TIC would sum all three of the monitored transitions. Use 

of the suggested primary ion is recommended. Retention times may vary slightly, on a day-to-day basis, 

depending on the batch of mobile phase and the gradient, column, guard column(s) used etc. Drift in retention 

times is acceptable within an analytical run, as long as the drift continues through the entire analysis and the 

standards are interspersed throughout the analytical run.

11.2 Calibration Curve

Quantitation is by internal standard or external standard calibration. Calibration standards may be prepared in 

ASTM Type I, HPLC water, other suitable water, or a solvent/water mixture. If internal standard calibration 

does not meet calibration acceptance criteria, external calibration can be applied. See Table 1 for 

GLP10-01-02; Interim Report 38

Former Sludge Incorporation Area (FSIA); Decatur, AL

Analysis

recommended application of available internal standards. Quantitation of PFOA and PFOS is by summed 

analyte-specific mass transitions. 

Analyze the standard curve prior to each set of samples. If internal standards were added to the calibration 

standards area ratios are used to generate the calibration curve. The standard curve may be plotted using a 

linear regression (y = mx + b), weighted 1/x or unweighted, or by quadratic fit (y = ax2 + bx + c), weighted 1/x or 

unweighted, using suitable software. The mathematical method used to calculate the calibration curve should 

be applied consistently throughout a study. Any change should be thoroughly documented in the raw data.

High and/or low points may be excluded from the calibration curves to provide a better fit over the range 

appropriate to the data or because they did not meet the pre-determined acceptance criteria. Low-level curve 

points should also be excluded if their area counts (or area ratio if quantitating by IS) are not at least twice that 

of the average area counts (or area ratio if quantitating by IS) of method and/or solvent blanks. The coefficient 

of determination (r2

) value for the calibration curve must be greater than or equal to 0.990 (or a correlation 

coefficient (r) of 0.995). Each point in the curve must be within ±25% of the theoretical concentration with the 

exception of the LLOQ, which may be within ±30%. Justification for exclusion of calibration curve points will be 

noted in the raw data. A minimum of 6 points will be used to construct the calibration curve. 

If the calibration curve does not meet acceptance criteria, perform routine maintenance or prepare a new 

standard curve (if necessary) and reanalyze. 

11.3 Continuing Calibration Verification (CCV)

Continuing calibration verifications (CCV) are analyzed to verify the accuracy of the calibration curve. Analyze 

a mid-range calibration standard, one of the same standards used to construct the calibration curve, at a 

minimum after every tenth sample, not including solvent blanks, with a minimum of one per sample set. 

Calibration verification injections must be within ±25% to be considered acceptable. The calibration curve and 

the last passing CCV will then bracket acceptable samples. Multiple CCV levels may be used. Samples must 

be bracketed by passing CCVs or the calibration curve and a passing CCV to be reportable.

11.4 System Suitability

A minimum of three system suitability samples should be injected at the beginning of each analytical run, prior 

to the analysis of the calibration curve. Typically these samples are at a concentration near the mid-level of the 

calibration curve and are repeated injections from one autosampler vial. It is suggested that the system 

suitability injections have area counts or area ratios when using internal standard calibration, with a target RSD 

of ≤5% and a target retention time RSD of ≤2%. There is no defined acceptability limit on these results as the 

%RSD value is dependent on the number of MRM transitions being monitored in the LC/MS/MS run or time 

period. Ultimately, any effects on these parameters for the System Suitability samples will also be evident on 

all standards and QC samples analyzed as part of the analysis batch. Any effect of system suitability is 

incorporated within QC acceptance criteria.4

11.5 Sample Analysis and QCs

For each analysis batch, the instrument analysis run sequence should include an initial calibration curve, 

samples, FDSs, interspersed blanks, interspersed CCVs, appropriate QCs (i.e., LCSs, LMSs, FMSs, TBMSs, 

and TBs), and a final CCV or calibration curve bracketing samples and appropriate QCs

Inject the same volume (between 5 - 100μL) of each standard, analytical sample and blank into the instrument 

(unless an on-instrument sample dilution is desired).

Samples containing analytes that are quantitated above the concentration of the highest standard in the curve 

should be further diluted and reanalyzed. 

 

4 3M Environmental Laboratory study E08-0096 evaluated the effect on these results as a function of the number of MRMs being monitored.

13 Analysis Batch Method Performance Criteria

Any method performance parameters that are not achieved must be considered in the evaluation of the data. 

Nonconformance to any specified parameters must be described and discussed in the final report if the 

Technical Manager (non-GLP study) or Study Director (GLP study) chooses to report the data.

If criteria listed in this method performance section are not met, maintenance may be performed on the system 

and samples reanalyzed, or other actions taken as appropriate. Document all actions in the raw data.

If data are to be reported when performance criteria have not been met, the data must be footnoted on tables 

and discussed in the text of the report.

13.1 System Suitability – Analysis Batch

A minimum of three system suitability samples should be injected at the beginning of each analytical run. 

These samples are run prior to the calibration curve. It is suggested that the system suitability injections have 

area counts with a target RSD of ≤5% and a target retention time RSD of ≤2%. There is no defined 

acceptability limit on these results as the %RSDs are dependent on the number of MRM transitions being 

monitored in the LC/MS/MS run or time period. Any effect of system suitability is incorporated in the QC 

acceptance criteria.

13.2 Calibration and Limit of Quantitation (LOQ) – Analysis Batch

Calibration Curve: The coefficient of determination (r2) value for the calibration curve must be greater than or 

equal to 0.990 corresponding to a correlation coefficient (r) = 0.995. Each point in the curve must be within 

±25% of the theoretical concentration with the exception of the LLOQ, which may be within ±30%. 

CCV Performance: The calibration standards that are interspersed throughout the analytical sequence are 

evaluated as continuing calibration verifications in addition to being part of the calibration curve. The accuracy

Analysis

of each curve point must be within 25% of the theoretical value (within 30% for lowest curve point). Samples 

that are bracketed by CCVs not meeting these criteria must be reanalyzed.

Limits of Quantitation (LOQ): The lower LOQ (LLOQ) is the lowest non-zero active standard in the 

calibration curve; the peak area of the LLOQ must be at least 2X that of the average area counts for all 

prepared procedural blank(s). By definition, the measured value of the LLOQ must be within 30% of the 

theoretical value.

Demonstration of Specificity: Specificity is demonstrated by chromatographic retention time (within 4% of 

standard) and the mass spectral response of unique ions.

13.3 Blanks – Method/Procedural Blanks and Trip

Method/Procedural Blanks: Multiple procedural blanks should be interspersed throughout the analysis batch 

and the analytical sequence. At a minimum, method blanks are analyzed prior to instrument calibration, prior 

to the analysis of CCV samples, after every 10 sample injections, and at the end of the analytical run. 

The mean area counts (or area ratios when using IS calibration) for each analyte must be less than 50% of the 

area count of the LOQ standard. If the area counts of the procedural blanks exceed 50% of the LOQ standard, 

then the LOQ must be raised to the first standard level that meets criteria.

Trip Blank: A trip blank of ASTM Type I water (or lab equivalent) is prepared in a sample container in the 

laboratory and treated as a sample, including exposure to shipping, sampling site conditions, storage, 

preservation and all analytical procedures. The trip blanks results for each analyte are included with the 

reported sample results. 

13.4 Data Accuracy and Precision – Analysis Batch

Lab Control Spikes: The average recovery at each LCS level for each target analyte and appropriate SRS 

should be within 80-120% and the percent relative standard deviation of the recoveries must be less than or 

equal to 20%. If the average recovery of a spiking level falls outside method acceptance, but at least 67% (6

out of 9) of LCS samples are within 20% of their respective nominal value (33% of the QC samples, not all 

replicates at the same concentration, may be outside 20% of nominal value), the average recovery will be 

flagged as outside method acceptance criteria. All LCS samples will be control charted as per ETS-12-012. If 

the average recovery of one of the spiking levels exceeded the analytical method uncertainty as determined by 

ETS-12-012, that analytical batch uncertainty will be expanded for that particular study. The average recovery 

at each LCS level for mixed branched/linear isomer PFOA and PFOS should be within 70-130% and the 

percent relative standard deviation of the recoveries must be less than or equal to 20%. 

Field Duplicates: The relative percent difference (RPD) of duplicate samples should be less than 20% for the 

precision of sample preparation and analysis to be considered in control. Replicate samples not meeting the 

20% RPD criteria are flagged and reported as outside of QC acceptance criteria.

Field Matrix Spikes: FMS acceptance criteria are recoveries within ±30% of the expected value for each 

target analyte and appropriate SRS. Sample data with FMS recovery outside of ±30% but within ±50% of the 

expected value are flagged and reported as outside of QC acceptance criteria. Data with FMS recovery 

outside of ±50% of the expected value are reported as NR, where NR is defined as “Not Reportable” data 

outside of QC acceptance criteria. If FMS recovery could not be assessed because FMSs were at an 

inappropriate level, then Laboratory Matrix Spikes (LMSs) may be substituted. If LMS recoveries are within 

±30% for each target analyte and SRSs the data are reportable but flagged as not meeting the FMS method 

acceptance criteria.

13.5 Analytical Method Uncertainty

Analytical method uncertainty for each target analyte and SRS is determined with control charted historical 

analysis batch LCS data for the method and reported with each analysis batch.5

are based on INTERNATIONAL ANS/ISO/IED STANDARD 17025 reference (GUM, Guide to the Expression 

of Uncertainty in Measurement) and described in ETS-12-012. At least thirty data points are required for 

determining analytical method uncertainty. The method uncertainty is defined as 2x the standard deviation of 

the percent recoveries of the pooled lab control spikes. While all LCS data points are control charted, only the 

most recent fifty data points are used for determining the method uncertainty.

When less than thirty LCS data points have been generated for a given analyte, the analysis batch LCSs are 

used to determine the data uncertainty. If FMSs meet the ±30% recovery criteria at a level appropriate to the 

endogenous level, and the LCS meet the ±20% recovery criteria, then the uncertainty of the data is determined 

as within 100±20%. 

Analysis batch sample data with FMS recovery outside of ±30% but within ±50% of the expected value are 

flagged and reported as outside of QC acceptance criteria with expanded uncertainties. Data with FMS 

recovery outside of ±50% of the expected value are reported as NR, where NR is defined as “Not Reportable” 

data outside of QC acceptance criteria. If FMS recovery could not be assessed because FMSs were at an 

inappropriate level, then Laboratory Matrix Spikes (LMSs) may be substituted. If LMS recoveries are within 

±30% for each target analyte and appropriate SRSs the data are reportable but flagged as not meeting the 

FMS method acceptance criteria with uncertainties of ±30%. If FMS do not meet the ±30% recovery criteria, 

and historical FMS data does not exist, the analytical uncertainty is evaluated on a sample-by-sample basis, 

the data may be reported with expanded uncertainty and are flagged. 

13.6 Quantitation of PFOA/PFOS – Analysis Batch

Calibration standards consisting of mixed branched and linear isomer PFOS/PFOA are preferred. 

Quantitation is performed by integrating the linear and branched isomers together. Alternately, the linear and 

branched isomers can be integrated separately, applying the appropriate true value to each calibration curve 

point for each isomer. The LCS and samples are then quantitated by integrating the linear and branched 

isomers separately (requires separate analytical results files) and quantitating the resulting peak against the 

linear or branched calibration curve. The results from both integrations are then summed to produce the final 

result. Integrating the linear and branched isomers separately may be helpful for those samples where the 

linear/branched ratios do not closely match those of the reference standards.

However, for PFOS/PFOA target analytes, if the calibration standards are comprised of predominantly linear 

isomers only the method requires the addition of LCSs of mixed branched/linear isomer PFOS/PFOA. The 

purpose of including these LCSs is to demonstrate quantitative equivalency (or quantitative bias) of the 

isomeric mix when using a predominantly linear PFOS or PFOA standard for calibration. Alternatively, in lieu 

of mixed branched and linear isomer PFOS/PFOA LCSs, mixed branched and linear isomer PFOS/PFOA 

TBMSs may be applied to demonstrate method accuracy and precision.

An alternate method of quantitation can be performed whereby only the linear isomer of PFOS/PFOA is 

integrated and used for generating the calibration curve. The LCS and samples are then quantitated by 

integrating the linear and branched isomers separately (requires separate analytical results files) and 

quantitating the resulting peak against the linear calibration curve. The results from both integrations are then 

summed to produce the final result. Integrating the linear and branched isomers separately reduces the oncolumn concentration for those samples that contain both linear and branched isomers of PFOA/PFOS. This 

ensures that the concentration detected is within the a range of the calibration curve that is comparable 

regardless of whether the calibration curve was generated using predominantly linear isomers of PFOS/PFOA 

or linear plus branched isomers of PFOS/PFOA.

//. Description (attach extra pages as needed) 

Method Requirements: 

1. FMS recovery within ±30%. 

2. RPD values <20%. 

3. LCS recovery within ±20%. 

Actual procedure/process: 

1. The sampling location DAL GW 1368 had a PFOS FMS recovery of 58.5%. 

2. The sampling location DAL GW 1 SOL had a sample/sample duplicate RPD of 22% for PFOS.. 

3. The low level LCSs (0.2ppb) had an average recovery of 127% for PFOS. 

///. Actions Taken 

(sucti as amendment issued, SOP revision, etc.) 

Corrective Action ( • Yes 0 No) Reference: 

Acceptability of the nonconfomning work: 

1. The sampling location with a FMS recovery outside method acceptance criteria will be flagged in the 

report and the analytical uncertainty for sampling location DAL GW 136S will be expanded to ± 42% for 

PFOS. The average FMS recovery for all FMS samples was calculated to determine whether the method 

uncertainty for all samples needed to be further expanded due to the limited number of FMS samples. 

Since the overall average FMS recovery met the acceptance criteria of 100 ± 30% at 84.9%, the method 

uncertainty will only be expanded for DAL GW 136S. 

2. The non-compliant RPDs will be flagged in the final report. 

3. All LCSs were used to determine the overall analytical method uncertainty. Since the % bias of the low 

level LCSs (27%) was less than the calculated analytical method uncertainty (±36%) for PFOS, the 

method uncertainty does not need to be further expanded.
