Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the comparison results of volatile organic components in chemicals tested by occupational health laboratories.METHODS: A total of 37 reference laboratories that participated in the 2019 National Occupational Health Inspection and Testing Institution Laboratory Comparison Chemical Qualitative Testing Comparison organized by Guangdong Occupational Health Testing Center were selected as the research subjects. Headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used for the determination of volatile organic components in chemicals. The comparison results of reference laboratories were collected and implemented with qualitative and quantitative evaluation. RESULTS: The qualified rates of the qualitative results of the required hazard factors and other hazard factors in the reference laboratories were higher than those of the quantitative results of similar factors with statistical significance(83.78% vs 67.57%, 89.19% vs 56.76%, all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the qualified rate of qualitative and quantitative results and comprehensive judgment results among each reference laboratory with other hazard factors(83.78% vs 89.19%, 67.57% vs 56.76%, 83.78% vs 89.19%, all P>0.05). The qualified rate of 37 reference laboratories was 89.19%(33/37). It showed no significant difference in the qualified rate of qualitative, quantitative and comprehensive judgment results among the reference laboratories of disease prevention and control system and non-disease prevention and control system(93.75% vs 85.72%, 85.00% vs 61.91%, 93.75% vs 85.52%,all P>0.05). CONCLUSION: There are great differences in the detection ability of volatile organic components on chemicals of each reference laboratory. The ability of qualitative detection is superior to the quantitative detection.
