Precision for determination of nicotelline and nicotine in NIST SRM 1649b-Urban Dust and in Hivol filter sections. The NIST SRM served as a QC sample in analytical runs. The analysis of filter sections was performed to verify the uniformity of deposition of the analytes on the filter.
| Analyte | Measured Mean | Precision (%RSD) |
|---|---|---|
| Nicotelline, SRM 1649b (N = 9) (in ng/g) | 451 | 5.6 |
| Nicotelline, Hivol Filter Sections (N = 12) (in ngmL−1) | 189 | 15 |
| Nicotine, SRM 1649b (N = 9) (in ng/g) | 52,800 | 8.4 |
| Nicotine, Hivol Filter Sections (N = 12) (in ngmL−1) | 3,990 | 12.0 |
N: Number of samples; RSD: Relative Standard Deviation.
