Gas chromatography-olfactometry methods are used in flavor research to determine the odor active compounds in foods. In this review, the four major methods for gas chromatography-olfactometry are described and their potentials and limitations discussed. The methods include dilution analysis, detection frequency methods, posterior intensity methods and time-intensity methods. The value of gas ch...

Glyphosate is widely used in herbicides and is toxic to organism. Therefore accurate detection of glyphosate content is important for public health and food security. In this paper, methods such as gas chromatography (GC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS), ion chromatography (IC), capilla...

BACKGROUND An important question is whether human serum levels of persistent organic pollutants has continued to decrease during the last decades. The aim of this study was to assess intra-individual variations over time of serum levels of 2,2',4,4',5,5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (CB-153), 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-ethene (p,p'-DDE) and hexachlorobenzene (HCB), considering the impact of a n...

The triacylglyceride components of cottonseed oil were isolated and positively identified by a combination of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC). Both reversed-phase HPLC and capillary GC were capable of separating the oil into triacylglyceride peaks. These peaks were isolated by HPLC and their component acyl groups were converted to fatty acid methyl este...

A considerable contribution to the worlds total GHG emission originates from gas flaring: According to a World Bank estimation an amount of around 150 billion cubic meters of natural gas is flared around the world annually, contaminating the environment with 400 million tons of CO2. This is equivalent to around 25 % of the United States’ gas consumption, or 30 % of gas consumption in the Europe...

Zearalenol was extracted from Fusarium-infected stems of corn from southern Italy. The toxin, which appeared as a single compound in various thin-layer chromatography systems, was resolved by high-pressure liquid chromatography into two components. A gas chromatography-mass spectrometry examination of a purified fraction confirmed the natural occurrence of zearalenol as a diastereomeric mixture...

The price of feedstock is one of the most significant factors affecting the economic viability of biodiesel manufacturer. Many approaches were investigated to reduce the biodiesel production cost. The present work gave a preliminary study of two approaches to economically produce biodiesel from waste cooking oil (WCO) and flaked cottonseed. One was the use of ultrasound-assisted synthesis of bi...

Two-dimensional gas chromatography not only provides improved resolution, it can also provide much faster analysis times. A two-dimensional gas chromatography system based on a simplified Deans switch design is used to analyze the alcohol content in denatured fuel grade ethanol. By using two short columns of different selectivity, the two-dimensional gas chromatography application completes thi...
