Abstract
A gas chromatographic method for the analysis of both water and soil-core material for TNT and RDX is presented. The explosives may be determined to 0.01 microgram per litre in 1-litre water samples and 0.2 micrograms per kilogram in 50 grams of soil. Provision is made for removal of environmental interference by use of an alumina chromatographic column.
