This is exactly why I am looking into this. I want to develop a cleaning SOP that actually ensures negative results are obtained from GC-MS analysis after cleaning. It does appear to be an issue that is quietly ignored (and in reality probably has no effect on the investigation outcome) but it would be good to have evidence to say this for sure.
