Rapid Screening Method for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Using an Advanced Solid Core UHPLC Column and System Combination
Rapid Screening Method for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Using an Advanced Solid Core UHPLC Column and System Combination
24 Jun 2015This application note demonstrates the advantages of using the Thermo Scientific™ Accucore™ Vanquish™ C18+, 1.5 μm column and Thermo Scientific Vanquish UHPLC system for the fast analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The advanced capabilities of the Vanquish UHPLC system allow the Accucore Vanquish columns to be operated at high flow rates that enable development of rapid analytical methods while maintaining high performance.

UHPLC and HPLCHigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), also known as UPLC, are analytical techniques used to separate, identify and quantitate components of complex mixtures including biological samples such as proteins and lipids as well as chemical mixtures of pesticides, drugs and oils. Both techniques are liquid chromatographic methods but differ by operating pressures (HPLC < 6000 psi < UHPLC ). Components of HPLC and UHPLC systems include columns, detectors, pumps, autosamplers and column heaters. Explore a range of UHPLC and HPLC columns for your specific sample needs including reverse phase, normal phase, ion exchange, HILIC, ion exclusion and size exclusion columns. For more specialized HPLC, explore FPLC, countercurrent LC and simulated moving bed systems. Find the best UHPLC and HPLC equipment in our peer reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Environmental Monitoring and TestingEnvironmental monitoring and testing uses handheld portable analyzers, kits, spectrometers or chromatography systems for air, water, soil, food and other sample testing. Useful features of analyzers such as BOD and COD include portability, easy calibration, automation and sensitivity. Environmental test kits for pH, water, moisture, etc, should be accurate, sensitive, reliable, fast and easy to use.HydrocarbonEnvironmental AnalysisEnvironmental analysis describes a variety of tests that determine the effect of chemicals, processes and particulates such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) have on the environment.
