Optimized GC/MS analysis for PAHs in challenging matrices using the Agilent 5977 Series GC/MSD
23 Jul 2024Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are toxic to aquatic life and are suspected human carcinogens. Discover how the Agilent 8890 GC combined with an Agilent 5977 Series MSD system provides a precise and robust means of analyzing PAHs in difficult matrices, using proper instrument configuration and operating conditions. Explore how mid-column backflushing, continuous hydrogen source cleaning (JetClean), and use of an alternative draw-out lens result in excellent linearity across a calibration range of 1 to 1,000 pg.
