Enhanced Results of Diesel Range Organics Analysis with High-Temperature Gas Enhanced Chromatography
June 1st 2012Diesel range organic (DRO) compounds have boiling points similar to diesel fuel (C10–C28), ranging from 170–430 ?C. These heavy compounds are amenable to GC-FID analysis; however, important considerations should be taken to ensure reproducible results over repeated injections.
Advantages of Multi-Pesticide Screening by GC–MS
June 1st 2011Due to the increasing number of toxic pesticides being used throughout the world, a robust method for positively identifying low levels of multiple classes of pesticides is required. A Zebron? ZB-MultiResidue? column is used with GC–MS to identify over 100 common pesticides.
Multi-Residue Pesticide Screening Method Using GC–MS
December 2nd 2007Pesticides are widely used by farmers to control pests, weeds and molds that would otherwise decrease crop production. While this has significantly increased worldwide food productions, these same pesticides pose health risks to humans. The restrictions for specific pesticides differ from one country to the next and as world trade increases, the potential threat to other countries' populations increases. For this reason, pesticides and other food related allergens are currently the subjects of increasing scrutiny and regulation.
