Full Description

1.1This test method covers the chemical analysis of engine coolant for denatonium benzoate (DNB) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). DNB is added to potentially render engine coolant unpalatable to animals and humans. This analytical method was designed for the analysis of DNB and is not valid for any other bittering agents such as denatonium saccharide.

1.2This test method is applicable to both new and used coolants.

1.3Coelution of other ions may cause interferences in the detection of the denatonium cation. In the case of unfamiliar formulations, identification verification should be performed by either or both fortification and dilution of the sample matrix with denatonium ion.

1.4The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

1.5This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
