title: [A gas-chromatographic method for the determination of volatile nitrosamines in plant material and soil (author's transl)].
abstract: A method is described which enables low molecular nitrosamines to be determined in plant material and mineral soils. The principle of this method is based on the steam volatility of these nitrosamines by means of which they can be isolated. Their detection and quantiative determination is then carried out by gas chromatography. The limit of detection in this method is 4 to 8 ppb fresh plant material or soil, the possible sample weigth in each case being decisive. The various species of plants or soils have no influence.
