Environmental water testing with the Orbitrap Exploris GC Mass Spectrometer

John Quick, a principal scientist at ALS Environmental Services Ltd, discusses the facility's water testing capabilities, focusing on organic, inorganic, and microbiological parameters. The lab faces challenges in meeting client demands for analyzing more compounds at lower limits. High resolution mass spectrometry is crucial for achieving these goals and the Thermo Scientific™ Orbitrap Exploris™ GC Mass Spectrometer is proving essential for future operations.

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.

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.
