Rapid Analysis of Solid and Liquid Samples by Direct Introduction with Triple Quadrupole GC-MS/MS

16 September 2016

This application note presents a series of experiments conducted to demonstrate the use of the Bruker ChromatoProbe sample introduction device for the analysis of solids, liquids and slurries with Bruker GC-MS/MS systems. The versatility of the ChromatoProbe makes it ideal for a wide range of application areas, enabling investigation of compounds not normally considered amenable for GC-MS/MS analysis. In this study, the analysis of sanitary products, pesticide residues and forensics testing was conducted using the ChromatoProbe, covering a range of samples including tissue paper, hair, urine and plant tissue. The ChromatoProbe delivered straightforward sample injection with reduced preparation, while the EVOQ GC-TQ achieved superior measurements throughout.
