Analysis of total aromatic content in motor gasoline by ASTM D5769 using an Agilent 8850/5977C GC/MSD system
20 Oct 2025Explore this evaluation of the performance of an Agilent 8850 Gas Chromatograph (GC) System coupled to an Agilent 5977C GC/MSD to quantify benzene, toluene, and total aromatics in motor gasoline according to ASTM D5769. Discover how this combination was able to sensitively measure 100 ppm of 1,4-diethylbenzene in nine minutes and learn how this approach keeps in line with method linearity requirements.

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors. Find the best gas chromatographs in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Gasoline AdditivesBenzeneGC-MSGas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) combines the separation power of gas chromatography with the detection capabilities of mass spectrometry, allowing for the analysis of complex mixtures. It is widely used in environmental, forensic, and pharmaceutical analysis.
