This standard is intended for use in the determination of gasoline in used gasoline engine oil by gas chromatography (GC), IR, fuel dilution meter (fuel sniffer) and flash point analyser.

It is prepared gravimetrically to contain 0% (v/v) of devolatilised (10% light volatiles removed) gasoline in 75 cSt mineral oil. The certified concentration is based upon the gravimetric preparation of the standard.
