High Performance Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography Coupled with a High Resolution Multi-Reflecting TOFMS for Confident Non-Target Analyte Identification

Performing non-target analyte identification on most environmental sample matrices can be an extremely difficult task to accomplish with confidence. Being able to chromatographically separate all the possible pollutants from a complex environmental matrix is one of the major challenges for labs. High performance comprehensive twodimensional gas chromatography is an effective tool for the separation of compounds within a complex matrix. Confident identification of non-target analytes is best accomplished with the use of high resolution mass spectrometry. Combining the separation power of two-dimensional gas chromatography, with resolving power greater than 25,000, and sub ppm mass accuracies of a high resolution multi-reflecting TOFMS is the ideal solution for confident compound identification within a complex sample
matrix.
