Simplified analytical method for trace levels of dimethyl sulfide in freshwater / D.A. Holdway & J.O. Nriagu.: En13-5/86-142E-PDF

"A simple purge and trap method is described for extracting trace levels (ng.1-1) of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in freshwater samples. The DMS extracted is analyzed in a gas chromatograph equipped with a dual-flame photometric detector and a 2 m Chromosil 330 teflon column. Excellent recoveries (93-105%) are achieved when diethyl sulfide is used as an internal standard"--Abstract.
