SPME
All SPME samples were analyzed immediately after collection using an Agilent gas chromatograph with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) using manual injections and the following operating conditions:
Inlet: Temperature - 260 C
Constant Pressure of 6.37psi
Split Ratio of 10:1
Carrier Gas: Helium
Column: HP-5MS (5% Phenyl Methyl Siloxane - 0.25mm x 30m x 0.25
m)
Oven: Initial temperature 100 C with a ramp of 20 C/min to a final temperature of 280 C for a total run time of 9 minutes
Detector: MS - Transfer line at 280 C, Quad at 150 C, Source at 230 C in single ion mode

Immediately upon being removed from the chamber the samples were placed into a 7.0mL vial and then 6.5mL of ethylacetate was added to the vial. The vial was sonicated for 20 minutes before the extract was filtered through a nylon 0.2
m syringe filter into a separate
7.0mL vial. A 1.0mL aliquot of the extracts along with 10 L of a 1,000ppm BFB solution in ethyl acetate was transferred to a 2.0mL GC vial. Each sample was analyzed immediately after sample extraction using an Agilent GCMS with the following operating conditions:
Inlet: Injection volume – 1 L
Temperature - 250 C
Constant Pressure of 3.94psi
Split Ratio of 40:1
Carrier Gas: Helium
Column: HP-5MS (5% Phenyl Methyl Siloxane – 0.25mm x 30m x 0.25
m)
Oven: Initial temperature of 50 C – hold for 4 minutes and then ramp at a rate of 20 C/min to a final temperature of 250 C for a total run time of
14 minutes
Detector: MS – Transfer line at 280 C, Quad at 150 C, Source at 230 C in single ion mode

We believe most of the materials are nearly at equilibrium by the end of these experimental exposures, even though it may not be obvious from the dynamic charts (Figures 2a, 2b and
S.2). The system is somewhat complex because the chamber concentration is initially lower than the inlet concentration, due to flux to the material surfaces. Over time, the chamber concentration rises as the materials approach the limit of their capacity to sorb methamphetamine. An estimate of the characteristic time to reach equilibrium is given, again, by equation 5. We estimate the deposition velocity, v t
, from the slope of Ac area,2
vs t for the first two points (at 3 and 6 days) of materials that had the highest area-normalized partition coefficients (upholstery and baby book). The deposition velocity estimate for methamphetamine deposition to fabrics in this chamber was 2.2 m h -1 . The characteristic times are shown in Table 1, with ranging from 1.9 to 29 days. For most materials, 60 days should be sufficient to approach equilibrium under these conditions. The chamber deposition velocity is consistent with measurements in buildings for ozone (v t
of ~1-4 m h -1
; Morrison et al., 2006). Therefore, our observed dynamic accumulation is likely to be representative of how these fabrics would behave in a home contaminated with methamphetamine. An estimate of the dynamic air and surface concentrations in residences (e.g. using modeling methods of Guo, 2013) is not yet possible due to limited data on methamphetamine interactions with building materials and furnishings. An estimate of the residence time, and a post-remediation testing duration, may eventually be possible using the approach of Shin et al. (2013).
