3 7. Establish/Demonstrate Sample Air Flow Operating System and Conditions to Ensure that No Less Than 85% of Material at the CWAs Quantitation Limit Passes Through the System TASKS 1. Develop Spectra and Calibration Curves for the CWAs 2. Develop Chemical Ionization Capabilities to Maximize Sensitivity for the CWAs 3. Determine and Verify Detection and Quantitation Limits for Each CWA 4. Determine Dynamic Linear Range for CWAs 5. Establish Surrogate Relative Response Factors 6. Determine if Other Materials Interfere with CWA Response

4 Task 1. Develop Spectra and Calibration Curves for the CWAs All experiments under this task order will be performed with the Perkin Elmer-SCIEX (PE-SCIEX) API-365. The CWAs to be used for this task are GA, GB, GD, GF, VX, HD, HN-1, HN-2, and HN-3. Prior to performance of operations using nitrogen mustards, all three nitrogen mustards will be converted from the hydrogen chloride salt forms (as obtained from the commercial vendors) to their freebase form.

5 Task 2. Develop Chemical Ionization Capabilities to Maximize Sensitivity for the CWAs The proton affinity of the G- and V-series CWAs are sufficiently higher than that of water to allow proton transfer from the H 3 O + and H 3 O(H 2 O) n+ reagent ions generated in the APCI source of the API-365. Therefore, ambient air APCI conditions in the positive ion mode will be used for ionization of all G- and V-series of agents for this study. The protonated water and associated water clusters under ambient air APCI conditions are not efficient for the ionization of sulfur mustard (HD). The sensitivity for HD is enhanced by the addition of a small amount (approx 0.03%) of benzene to the APCI inlet.

6 Task 2. Develop Chemical Ionization Capabilities to Maximize Sensitivity for the CWAs (continued) The addition of benzene alters the reagent ion chemistry so that charge transfer from (C 6 H 6 ) + is the dominant mechanism of ion production and the M + ion is the predominant precursor ion along with the associated 37 Cl isotopes at (M+2) + and (M+4) +. The benzene will be added by introducing a known flow of nitrogen or zero air through a benzene filled glass bubbler connected to the APCI source inlet. The flow rate of gas and type of benzene used will be documented. The most sensitive ionization mode for the nitrogen mustard species (HN-1, HN-2, and HN-3) will be examined using both positive ion APCI and benzene charge exchange ionization techniques. The most sensitive method will then be used for all subsequent testing of HN-1, HN-2, and HN-3.

7 Task 3. Determine and Verify Detection and Quantitation Limits for Each CWA The detection limit for each agent will be determined as three times the standard deviation of the ion pair s signal in the background (either room air or room air spiked with blank hexane) divided by the ion pair s response factor. The detection limit will be reported as the average of the individual ion pairs. The quantitation limit for a compound will be determined as ten times the standard deviation of the ion pair s signal in the background divided by the ion pair s response factor. The quantitation limit will be reported as the average of the individual ion pairs.

8 Task 3. Determine and Verify Detection and Quantitation Limits for Each CWA (continued) In order to verify the accuracy of the gas phase agent concentrations, Battelle will verify the concentration of the standard solutions used to generate the agents in the gas phase, via a gas chromatographic method using standard operating procedures (SOPs) in place. The assumption will be made that all of the standard solution will be vaporized into the API-365 s air sampling stream without degradation of the CWAs. If degradation were to occur during the vaporization process, the concentration in the air stream would be lower than the reported value. Thus, the actual detection limits would be lower than the reported values.

9 Task 4. Determine Dynamic Linear Range for CWAs As stated in Task 1, the dynamic range of calibration will be determined by observing the signals obtained from the detection limit to the ion current at which the signal is no longer linear (i.e., saturation of the reagent ions). The dynamic range will be explored by varying the solution concentration and/or the rate of introduction via the syringe drive during the generation of calibration curves. These experiments will be performed for each agent in conjunction with the development of calibration curves in Task 1.

10 Task 5. Establish Surrogate Relative Response Factors Spectra and calibration curves for the surrogate compounds will be obtained using the same procedures as described in Task 1. Both native diisopropyl methyl phosphonate (DIMP) and deuterated diisopropyl methylphosphonate (d 14 -DIMP) will be used as surrogates for all of the G- and V-series agents. Chloroethylethylsulfide (CEES, halfmustard) will be used as the surrogate for the mustard agents. The relative response factors will be established by comparison of the response of the surrogate compound(s) to the response of the chemical warfare agents.

11 Task 6. Determine if Other Materials Interfere with CWA Response Evaluate the effect of two potential interferences (vehicle exhaust and bleach) at two interferent concentrations to be determined during testing. Room temperature and humidity will not be controlled beyond the normal operation of the HVAC system. Interferent test concentrations will be obtained by diluting a concentrated feed with air. Depending on the interferent, the concentrated feed will be provided by one of two methods. For bleach, delivery will involve purging the headspace of a large boiling flask containing approximately 100 ml of the bulk liquid of interferent. The amount of flow through the flask will determine the concentration of the interferent added.

12 Task 6. Determine if Other Materials Interfere with CWA Response (continued) For the simulated gasoline/diesel engine exhaust, a concentrated feed of interferent will be generated by using compressed gas cylinders. Due to the large number of CWAs being tested, consistent compositions of the interferent is important. Consistency can be maintained by providing a mixture in compressed gas cylinder. The composition of the gas cylinder will be characterized via a gas chromatographic method using standard operating procedures (SOPs).

13 Task 6. Determine if Other Materials Interfere with CWA Response (continued) A steady concentration of the CWAs (and surrogate compounds) will be introduced while recording the signal on the mass spectrometer. After a period of time, the interference will be introduced and any change in signal will be recorded, the concentration of the agent will be changed (via the syringe drive) and any change in the signal recorded. The concentration of the interference can then be changed (via an increase/decrease of the feed air) and record any change in the agent signal. The concentration of the agent can be changed back to the original concentration and any change in the signal recorded. This procedure will test two agent concentrations at two interferent concentrations. Results will be reported as change in response due to the presence of the interference.

14 Task 6. Determine if Other Materials Interfere with CWA Response (continued) A false positive test can be performed in the same manner without the introduction of the CWA and observing changes in the signals of the CWAs.

15 Task 7. Establish/Demonstrate Sample Air Flow Operating System and Conditions to Ensure that No Less Than 85% of Material at the CWAs Quantitation Limit Passes Through the System Safety concerns in using research dilute solution (RDS) levels of CWAs require that the syringe drive and vapor generator are placed in a chemical hood during the experiments. A doublewalled glass tube will extend out of the hood and into the ion source of the API-365. This tube is approximately three feet in length. In order to demonstrate an 85% transmission of the CWAs through the sampling line, initially a three-foot section will be used to obtain the baseline transmission and then add an additional three foot length to the sampling line (within the hood). The agents will be vaporized into the glass tubing as in previous tests at a known concentration and the percent transmission through the three- versus six-foot sampling lines will be compared.

16 Task 7. Establish/Demonstrate Sample Air Flow Operating System and Conditions to Ensure that No Less Than 85% of Material at the CWAs Quantitation Limit Passes Through the System (continued) If the percent transmission is greater than 85% in the six-foot tube when compared to the three-foot tube, it will be assumed that there is greater than 85% transmission through the original three-foot section of sampling tubing.
