How Tube-Based Thermal Desorption Can be Used to Monitor Chemical Warfare Agents at Ultratrace Levels
This study demonstrates the analysis of live chemical warfare agents and simulants at trace and higher levels.
How Switching from Helium to Hydrogen Carrier Gas in Thermal Desorbers Enhances Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry Systems
Analysis of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in air demonstrates that a TD–GC–MS system can operate with hydrogen carrier gas as well as it does with helium.
Five Frequently Asked Questions about Thermal Desorption
Thermal desorption (TD) is a versatile preconcentration technique for gas chromatography (GC) that is used to analyze volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds in air, materials or liquids.
