TY - RPRT A1 - Dorgerloh, Ute A1 - Becker, Roland A1 - Sauer, Andreas T1 - Report on the interlaboratory validation trial of DIN 38407-53 N2 - DIN 38407-53 "German standard methods for the examination of water, waste water and sludge — Jointly determinable substances (group F) — Part 53: Determination of TFA in water — Method using liquid chromatography and mass spectrometric detection (LC-MS/MS) after direct injection (F 53)" was prepared by working group NA 119 01 03 02 16 AK "LC-MS/MS-Verfahren" of the Technical Committee NA 119 01 03 AA "Wasseruntersuchung" in the DIN-Normenausschuss Wasserwesen (NAW). The DIN 38407-53 was technically finalized as Draft on 2024-02, further versions have been editorially revised only. The interlaboratory validation trial was carried out according to the rules set by ISO 7013. They allowed adopting validation data from a working group internal ring test if they are scientifically accepted and fulfil the requirements of ISO 7013. Twelve German and Swiss participants declared to have strictly followed the instructions given in draft DIN 38407-53. The intercomparison was organised and operated by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing BAM in 2024. The performance characteristics for the quantification of TFA were evaluated in different water types and evaluated according to ISO 5725-2.

Since there is no standardised procedure available, German standardisation body DIN has initiated the first draft standard using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) after direct injection for the concentration range between ≥ 0.1 and 3 µg/L. Herein, the interlaboratory comparison as final validation step involving 12 expert laboratories from Germany and Switzerland is described. Two groundwaters, two surface waters, a drinking water, a rainwater, and two fortified groundwater samples displayed relative repeatability standard deviations between 3 and 7% and relative reproducibility standard deviation between 6 and 20% and were included in the draft standard DIN 38407-53.
