A rapid, sensitive, and consolidated method for PCBs and PAHs using GC-MS/MS
15 Aug 2024Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are toxic organic pollutants that can contaminate various food and environmental matrices, including soils, water, sun cream, and salmon. GC-MS, and increasingly GC-MS/MS, are being utilized by analytical testing laboratories to analyze PAHs and PCBs. GC-MS/MS offers an increase in selectivity, allowing matrix interferences to be significantly reduced. Discover how the Thermo Scientific™ TSQ™ 9610 triple quadrupole GC-MS/MS system equipped with the Advanced Electron Ionization (AEI) source delivers consistent and reliable analytical performance for analysis of PAHs and PCBs in water samples.
