Selective ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) is a direct mass spectrometric technique that allows qualitative and quantitative analysis of a large number of volatile organic compounds. Because of its speed and ease of use, this nondestructive technique could be considered as a practical tool for quality control. This research focuses on the possibilities of direct headspace sampling by S...

Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) has been developed, optimized, and applied to investigate the dimethylsulfide (DMS) emissions from eight marine phytoplankton species, namely, Calcidiscus leptoporus, Emiliania huxleyi, Phaeodactylum tricornutum, Chaetoceros neogracilis, Dunaliella tertiolecta, Synechococcus, Prochlorococcu...

A gas chromatography (GC) method including a full evaporation headspace (FE-HS) sampling technique was developed for rapidly and simultaneously measuring volatile products for acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation. In this method, a small volume (<50 μL) of fermentation broth was directly injected into a sealed headspace sample vial (22 mL) and the mass transfer of acetone-butanol-ethanol ...

One of the most common environmentally relevant groups pollutants are phthalate esters. After decades industrial use, they have become ubiquitous in environment and analytical methods to chemically detect them trace amounts required. In this study, details Proton Transfer Reaction-Mass Spectrometry (PTR-MS) investigations for reactions phthalic acid ten esters with H3O+ as a function reduced el...

PLOT-cryoadsorption concentrates headspace vapors by sweeping them through porous layer open tubular (PLOT) capillaries chilled to 0 °C promote adsorption onto an alumina layer. Compared passive concentration employing activated charcoal strips (ACSs) as adsorbents, has several potential advantages for extracting ignitable liquid (IL) residue from fire debris evidence. Capillary vapor traps can...

A new method for desiccated headspace (DHS) sampling of aqueous sample to GC-MS for the analysis of volatile compounds responsible for kiwifruit aroma in different kiwifruit cultivars has been developed based on the complete hydrate formation between the sample solvent (water) with anhydrous salt (calcium chloride) at an elevated temperature (above the boiling point of the aqueous sample) in a ...

In this article, the potential of carbon nanocones/disks as coating for solid-phase microextraction has been evaluated for the first time. The nanostructures were immobilized on a stainless steel needle by means of an organic binder. The fiber coating obtained was ca. 50 microm of thickness and 35 mm in length. The evaluation of the sorbent capacity was carried out through the determination of ...

The purpose of this research work was to develop a novel, sensitive and accurate analytical method for quantification of 12 residual solvents in Dapagliflozin Amorphous by using a static headspace gas chromatography (HSGC) coupled with flame ionization detector (FID). Methanol, Ethanol, Diethyl ether, Methyl acetate, Dichloromethane, Ethyl acetate, Tetrahydrofuran, Cyclohexane, Isopropyl acetat...
