Modernizing dioxin and POPs analysis
16 Apr 2024
Dioxins or polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/furans (PCDD/F), and other persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are everywhere, from the environment to our food. Laboratories need to analyze samples to accurately quantify dioxins and POPs and guarantee results are compliant with regulations and other controls on food and environmental safety. In this series of application notes, explore how Thermo Fisher Scientific GC-MS portfolio including GC-MS/MS, GC Orbitrap MS technology are being implemented alongside long standing Magnetic sector GC-HRMS for the routine quantitative analysis and detection of dioxins and POPs.
