Enhanced Analysis of Explosives Listed in EPA Method 8330B using APCI-LC-MS/MS

This poster presents an example of the analysis of all 17 explosives listed in EPA 8330B using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (APCI-LC-MS/MS), which allowed for more sensitive and selective analysis than PDA detection. In addition, MRM analysis provides an extra layer of confirmation based on the unique fragmentation of each compound.
