Configuring the GC/MS System for <strong>Pesticide</strong> Analysis<br />
Configuring the GC/MS System for <strong>Pesticide</strong> Analysis<br />
The analytical setup and method parameters in this document describe the basic setup for the quantitative analysis of pesticides using the TSQ Quantum GC<br />
mass spectrometer, TRACE GC Ultra gas chromatograph, and TriPlus autosampler. The method parameters have been selected to balance the analytical<br />
requirements for a large number of pesticides covering a wide range of volatility, chemical and chromatographic characteristics.<br />
Analyzing limited subsets of pesticides only with partial optimization for specific compound classes will improve separation and allow you to analyze faster.<br />
Customize the method template to include the particular compounds you are specifically looking for.<br />
The use of consumable components, such as insert liners, pre-columns and analytical column, has been tested by Thermo Fisher Scientific application<br />
laboratories for optimum analytical performance and sample throughput.<br />
TRACE GC Ultra<br />
The TRACE GC Ultra can be configured for Split/Splitless (SSL) or Programmable Temperature Vaporizing (PTV) injection techniques. The SSL injector<br />
can be used to analyze pesticide compounds in very low concentrations and for relatively dirty matrices. The PTV injector, however, allows you to vary the<br />
injection volume and temperature, which can lower detection limits and better analyze thermally sensitive compounds.<br />
