本欧洲标准规定了通过顶空气相色谱质谱（HS-GC-MS）测定软饮料，其他饮料和植物性婴儿食品中苯的方法。该方法已经通过对碳酸软饮料，仍然以水果为基础的饮料，碳酸水果饮料，含有胡萝卜的蔬菜和果汁，婴儿食品蔬菜和含有肉类的婴儿食品的加标样品的分析进行了实验室间研究。从1,9μg/ kg到18,6μg/ kg。然而，仪器响应的线性度从0.5μg/ kg到20μg/ kg的浓度被证实。量化限制（LOQ）取决于仪器，但通常可能在0.5μg/ kg至1.0μg/ kg的范围内

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of benzene in soft drinks, other beverages and vegetable-based infant foods, by headspace gas chromatography mass spectrometry (HS-GC-MS). The method has been validated in an interlaboratory study via the analysis of spiked samples of carbonated soft drink, still fruit-based drink, carbonated fruit-based drink, vegetable and fruit juice containing carrot, infant food vegetable based and infant food containing meat, ranging from 1,9 µg/kg to 18,6 µg/kg. However, linearity of the instrument response was proven for the concentration range from 0,5 µg/kg to 20 µg/kg. The limit of quantification (LOQ) depends on the instrument but can generally be expected to be in the range from 0,5 µg/kg to 1,0 µg/kg.
