Abstract
The method was validated by analyzing a set of burned samples by GC-MS according to the standard methods ASTM E1412 and ASTM E1618. The results obtained on using the method proposed in this study were comparable to those obtained with the reference method. The correct classification rates for assigning ignitable liquid residues into ASTM E1618 classes were in the range of 90% for both methods. In comparison to the standard methods HS-MS does have specific advantages. Apart from the speed of the analysis and the fact that the sample does not require sample pre-concentration, this technique is also safer and ecofriendly since it does not use any solvents or produce any residues.
