Recalling that the Commission in its PC-XV/25, paragraph 8.3(c), approved the inclusion of analytical data in the OPCW Analytical Database for the test chemicals, as contained in the Recommended Operating Procedure for On-Site / lysis by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) (PC-XIV/B/WP.5, Annex 5) on the understanding that the test samples will not contain scheduled chemicals and that, therefore, the use of the above data, during on-site analysis, will be restricted to GC/MS performance tests and that analytical procedures which prevent cross contamination of the test chemicals are appHed, as appropriate.
