Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for detecting hydrazine in the air of workplace by high performance liquid chromatography with benzaldehyde derivatization. METHODS: The air samples were collected by glass fiber filter impregnated with sulfuric acid solution and desorbed by sodium dihydrogen phosphate-ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium salt buffer solution. Desorption solution was derived from 1.00% benzaldehyde-acetonitrile solution, then separated by C18 liquid chromatographic column and detected by diode array detector. RESULTS: The linearity range of hydrazine mass was 12.50-150.00 μg, and the correlation coefficient was 0.999 7. The average elution efficiency of hydrazine was 89.28%-95.52%. The within-run and the between-run relative standard deviation were 1.09%-1.86% and 3.63%-4.00% respectively. The samples could be stored at 4 ℃ in a refrigerator for at least 25 days. CONCLUSION: This method has high sensitivity, precision and simple sample preparation. It can be used for detecting hydrazine in the air of workplace.
