Analysis Of Volatile Organic Compounds In Water Using Static Headspace-GC/MS

By Agilent Technologies

A static headspace (SHS) method was optimized for the determination of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in water. Analysis was performed by GC/MS in simultaneous scan/SIM mode. Using the trace ion detection mode on a 5975C MSD equipped with triple axis detection, "purge and trap" sensitivities can be obtained, combined with the robustness and ease-of-use of static headspace.
