1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of the content of dimethyl fumarate (DMFu) by gas chromatograph with single quadrupole mass spectrometer (GC-MS) or tandem quadrupole mass spectrometer (GC-MS/MS).
This document is applicable to all types of footwear and footwear components except metal parts.

4 Principle
The sample is extracted using acetone (see precaution for the solvent in Annex A) at 60℃ in an ultrasonic bath. At this step, two different procedures can be used, depending on the material being tested:
a) The “standard procedure,” without purification and concentration of the extracted solution, can be used for samples giving a simple matrix effect, for example, textiles, synthetic leather, and artificial leather;
b) The “procedure for complex matrix”, with purification and concentration of the extract, can be used for samples with a complex matrix effect, such as leather.
An aliquot of the extract is analyzed using a gas chromatography with single quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-MS) or tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS).
