The response of the standards decreased over time.

However, when using freshly prepared standards, the

response remained constant; this suggests there may be

temperature stability issues with the samples. Although

excellent short-term (30 hour) stability yielded standard

deviations less than 5%, using a refrigerated autosampler

and an isotopically-labeled internal standard will help

minimize systematic sample degradation and response

variation.
