Validation of an Analytical Method for Geochemical Organic Markers Determination in Marine Sediments

Abstract: MARINE SEDIMENTS. This paper describes the validation of an alternative method for determination of n-alkanes, sterols (OLs) and n-alkanols (ALCs) in marine sediments, through adaptation of clean up. The method reduced the material consumption, the discards produced and working time. The recovery percentages were 60-129% for n-alkanes, 52-67% for OLs and 43-141% for ALCs, acceptable values compared to other studies. The application in Antarctic marine sediments presented satisfactory results indicating contrib… Show more

“…PAHs were measured from a sediment sample from the control and impact sites one day before, one day after, and seven days after the diesel spill. The analysis of PAHs was based on the method described by UNEP (1992), incorporating minor modifications presented by Wisnieski et al (2016). Approximately 20 g of sediment from each site were extracted using a Soxhlet apparatus for 8 h with 80 mL of a mixture of (1:1, v/v) n-hexane and dichloromethane (DCM).…”
