The modifications we made included: use of 3-hydroxy C11:0 and C13:0 methyl esters as internal standards, subjecting calibration standards to phase separation and SPE; addition of water to phase separation; addition of 1-pentadecanol as a carrier; injecting 1:4 diluted TMS derivatives of 3-OHFAs; and monitoring both m/z 131 and 133 ions to improve stability of area measurements for product ions. This method of optimization establishes an appropriate technique for quantification of 3-OHFAs in house dust.
