Headspace SPME Used in Chlorophenols Analysis
Researchers from National Chung Hsing University (Taichung, Taiwan) analyzed four chlorophenols in aqueous samples using purge-assisted headspace solid-phase microextraction (SPME) followed by gas chromatography?mass spectrometry (GC?MS).
Researchers from National Chung Hsing University (Taichung, Taiwan) analyzed four chlorophenols in aqueous samples using purge-assisted headspace solid-phase microextraction (SPME) followed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). They investigated various extraction parameters, including extraction temperature, purge gas flow rate, and extraction time. The compounds analyzed were 2,4-dichlorophenol, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, 2,3,4,6-tetrachlorophenol, and pentachlorophenol. The researchers successfully used the technique to analyzed the chlorophenols in landfill leachate.
RAFA 2024 Highlights: Contemporary Food Contamination Analysis Using Chromatography
November 18th 2024A series of lectures focusing on emerging analytical techniques used to analyse food contamination took place on Wednesday 6 November 2024 at RAFA 2024 in Prague, Czech Republic. The session included new approaches for analysing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), polychlorinated alkanes (PCAS), Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons (MOH), and short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs and MCCPs).
