The first charged aerosol detector (CAD) was introduced in 2005. Nearly twenty years later, this near-universal detector has become an indispensable tool in the analytical chemist’s quantitative arsenal. This paper explores the CAD’s origin story, its adoption into everyday use by separation scientists, and its comparison to evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD). Technical highlights will include how parameters such as evaporation temperature influence application versatility, and how the power function impacts linearity and response behavior.

Hear how Eurofins SOFIA GmbH successfully implemented the TSQ 9610 GC-MS/MS into their workflow for trac contaminant analysis and increased higher sample throughput using the combination of instrumentations and software.

Utilizing GC-MS/MS to quantify low levels of PBDEs in matrix samples. Including an assessment of linearity and instrument detection limits (IDLs) for all compounds as well as an extended robustness study over n=100 injections of matrix samples to assess the reproducibility of the detection of trace levels of PDBEs.

In this study, the suitability of the TSQ 9610 triple quadrupole
GC-MS/MS system was assessed for the analysis of more than
200 pesticides in black tea at trace concentrations supplemented
with SPE cleanup. The linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of
quantitation, and injection reproducibility of 20 selected analytes
representative of the different pesticide classes in black tea
matrix are demonstrated.
