ENDRIN: METHOD 5519, Issue 2, dated 15 August 1994 - Page 4 of 4 sorbent tubes (range: 1.2 to 6.1 µg per sample) and from the filter sampler (range: 6.1 to 24.5 µg per sample) were 99% with a combined precision of 0.016. No significant breakthrough was observed after 240 min of sampling an atmosphere containing 0.257 mg/m 3 endrin at a flow rate of approximately 1 L/min. Samples stored one week at room temperature and extracted with toluene gave recoveries of 96 to 100%. Overall precision ( SˆrT) was 0.07. No significant bias was found.
