Optimized GC-MS/MS analysis for PAHs in challenging matrices using the Agilent 8890/7000D triple quadrupole GC/MS
22 Oct 2019By proper selection of instrument configuration and operating conditions, the Agilent 8890 GC combined with an Agilent 7000D triple quadrupole GC/MS system provides a robust means of analyzing PAHs in difficult matrices. Midcolumn backflushing, continuous hydrogen source cleaning (JetClean), and use of an alternative drawout lens result in excellent linearity across a calibration range of 1 to 1,000 pg. System precision and robustness are demonstrated with replicate injections of an extract from a high organic content soil. The added selectivity of MS/MS compared to MS also simplifies data review.

GC-MS GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) instruments and equipment are used to separate, quantify and identify mixtures of small and volatile compounds, such as polycyclic aromatics, fatty acids and alcohols. Often used in drug detection, forensic investigation and environmental analysis for pesticides and contaminants, GC-MS is a powerful addition to your lab’s analytical capabilities. GC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzers can give greater sensitivity and resolution to your analysis.

It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.
