This International Standard describes a validated method for the quantitative determination of the mineral oil (hydrocarbon) content in field-moist soil samples by gas chromatography, with mineral oil contents (mass fraction) between 100 mg/kg and 10 000 mg/kg soil, expressed as dry matter. All hydrocarbons are determined with a boiling range of 175 °C to 525 °C, and n-alkanes from C10H22 to C40H82, isoalkanes, cycloalkanes, alkylbenzenes, alkylnaphthalenes and polycyclic aromatic compounds. Moreover, the description includes information on sampling, guidance for preparation of calibration solutions and information on calculation, quality control and indication of performance characteristics.
