| Abstract | This work outlines the development of a gas chromatographic mass spectrometric (GCMS) method for the analysis of hydrocarbon residues such as those encountered in the examination of fire debris. The work compares favourably against an existing ASTM E-1618-06 method for ignitable liquid analysis currently used for the development of the National Centre for Forensic Science (NCFS) ignitable liquid database. A test mixture comprising fourteen hydrocarbons as recommended by the ASTM-1618-06 method was used to evaluate and validate the separation conditions together with a matrix matched ignitable liquid mixture diluted to 2 µL mL−1 in dichloromethane. Optimised conditions were as follows: injection volume of 1 µL with split ratio 50 to 1 at inlet temperature 280 °C, carrier gas flow rate was set as 1.0 mL min−1, the column temperature was maintained at 40 °C for 3 minutes, then increased at a rate of 12.5 °C min−1 to 290 °C, and held for 4 minutes. Undiluted ignitable liquid samples (50% gasoline : diesel) were also analysed with a high split ratio (300 : 1) and low injection volume (0.2 µL) to avoid column overloading and to eliminate any difficulties associated with solvent masking. This method provided improved separation and sensitivity compared to the ASTM method. Excellent precision both intra-day and inter-day (<3% RSD for peak area) was also obtained. The stability of ignitable liquid storage was also investigated over a two week period for various types of vials and septa. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
