Validation of GC-MS/MS for Detection and Confirmation of Low-Level Dioxins
12 Nov 2014This application note demonstrates that the TSQ 8000 Evo triple quadrupole GC-MS/MS delivers consistent results and can be used with confidence to sensitively and selectively detect, quantify, and confirm dioxins in food and feed samples at low concentrations.

GC-MS GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) instruments and equipment are used to separate, quantify and identify mixtures of small and volatile compounds, such as polycyclic aromatics, fatty acids and alcohols. Often used in drug detection, forensic investigation and environmental analysis for pesticides and contaminants, GC-MS is a powerful addition to your lab’s analytical capabilities. GC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzers can give greater sensitivity and resolution to your analysis.

These airborne particles can deposit on plants or in water, and animals can accumulate these highly toxic molecules in their fat.
