Standards for hydrocarbons (HC) were purchased from LGC Standards Ltd (Teddington, UK): "Alkanes-Mix 12," 100 µg mL -1 in toluene, covering the range C8-C40 (total 14 HCs), and "PAHs-Mix 9" with 19 PAHs according to EPA Method 610 (acenaphthene, acenaphthylene, anthracene, benzo(a) anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k) fluoranthene, benzo(g,h,i)perylene, chrysene, dibenzo(a,h) anthracene, fluoranthene, fluorene, indeno(1,2,3-c,d)pyrene, naphthalene, phenanthrene, and pyrene) at 100 µg mL -1 in acetonitrile. Certified soil reference materials "CRM-357" (sandy loam soil) and "CRM-359" (clay soil) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Chromatographic separation was performed using Isolute Sorbent EPH extraction cartridges (5 mL g -1 ).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
