Select Ion Monitoring mode (GC/MS-SIM) is a technique used to perform low level GC/MS measurements of organic compounds. GC/MS-SIM can reduce reporting limits 10-100 fold and can minimize the effects of matrix interferences.
Odorous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were analysed via a thermal desorption gas chromatograph coupled with a mass spectrometer and olfactory detection port (TD-GC-MS/ODP) to characterize odour emissions from a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). Three trained ODP assessors, screened according to the European dynamic olfactometry standard (EN: 13725), were used for the olfactory analysis. Their sensitivity to n-butanol varied within the acceptable limits. VOC samples from the WWTP were collected onto Tenax TA...
With the improvement of people's consciousness about health, more attention has been paid to the biosafety of effluent reaching conventional discharge standard. In this contribution, removal efficiency of chemical oxygen demand (COD), acute toxicity, genotoxicity and estrogenicity in landfill leachate membrane concentrates (MCs) among UV-Fenton, Fenton and activated carbon adsorption process were compared. Daphnia magna acute toxicity assay, comet assay, cytokinesis-block micronucleus and E-screen assay were...
A method for analysis of 258 pesticides has beendeveloped on Scion TQ triple quadrupole massspectrometer. The method setup is streamlined with thenew software approach of Compound Based Scanning(CBS). The matrix-matched calibration results havedemonstrated good sensitivity, linearity and precision ofScion TQ. This application note describes a GC-MS/MS method fordetection of 258 pesticides in a vegetable matrix afterextraction using the QuEChERS (Quick Easy Cheap Effective Rugged and Safe) method. The ease of...
This paper describes use of a triple quadrupole GC/MS/MS method using Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) mode for sensitive and selective detection and quantitation of Organochlorine pesticides and PCBs. A database with optimized MRM transitions for all of the OCPs and PCBs, including relative retention times for all components, makes method setup possible within minutes. The use of GC/MS/MS MRM mode provides enhanced selectivity, specificity and sensitivity in complex matrices with potential co-eluting interferenc...
A method for determination of chlorophenols (CPs) in sediments was developed using ultrasonic solvent extraction followed by solid-phase extraction, derivatization, and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. Some effective operational details and parameters on mixing of samples and extraction solvent, adsorption loss, and extraction cycles of the derivatives were studied and optimized. The calibration curves of standard solutions were observed in the range of 0.5–100 μg L−1 and correlation coefficie...
