The use of GC-HRT in Dioxins

22 May, 2012

Published over 14 years ago. See the latest and most current information on GC, MDGC.

LECO has released two new application notes highlighting the use of their Pegasus® GC-HRT for dioxin analysis, specifically as it relates to EPA method 1613b—“High Performance Mass Spectrometry of Persistent Organic Pollutants: What Else is in my Dioxin Sample?” and “Meeting the Challenges of EPA 1613b Using Gas Chromatography with High Resolution Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry.”

Both application notes provide proof that the performance of the Pegasus GC-HRT meets or exceeds the strict requirements for EPA 1613b and highlights the advantages of the acquisition of spectral data across a wide mass range without sacrificing high resolving power, high mass accuracy, and sensitivity. The ability of the Pegasus GC-HRT to perform an untargeted analysis in order to identify unknown analytes in addition to dioxin analysis is evidenced as well.
