Scientists recently used thermal desorption (TD) and gas chromatography– time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOFMS) to track per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) emissions from materials used in firefighter gear.

Analysis of Pharmaceutical Residual Solvents Using Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatograhy
January 1st 2008Comprehensive GCxGC was employed for the separation of ICH and USP 1, 2, and 3 pharmaceutical solvents. The significantly improved peak capacity in GCxGC allows a single method for any combination of solvents and mitigates interference due to impurities in the solvents, diluents, analyte matrices, and from column or septum bleed, through the increased separation space.
Non-Classical Methods in Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography
March 1st 2007It may be somewhat audacious to claim that some methods in GCÃ-GC can be called non-classical - the technique has only been around for about 15 years and one might argue that this is not long enough to establish a suite of classical methods.
Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography
February 1st 2004The latest newcomer to the collection of GC techniques, GCXGC, is examined in this instalment. Although this technique is capable of delivering more GC information in a shorter time than other methods, its technical complexity has slowed down widespread acceptance. John Hinshaw explains...
