The analytical characteristics of halogenated flame retardants were studied. Suitable electron capture gas-liquid chromatographic conditions were developed, and retention times and sensitivity responses were obtained. The behavior of these industrial chemicals through the AOAC multiresidue method for nonfatty foods was studied using fish as the test substrate. Of the 24 flame retardants investigated, 23 were recovered (85-110%) using the AOAC method.
