The use of gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to the identification of fine chemicals

Journal Title: CHEMIK nauka-technika-rynek - Year 2011, Vol 65, Issue 7

Abstract

Gas chromatography – mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is very useful analytical method for evaluation of the quality of chemicals. It combines the features of gas chromatography and mass spectrometry to help identify different substances within the tested sample. Applications of GC-MS include drug detection, environmental analysis and identification of unknown samples. This method is fast, enables a highly selective detection and quantification and is also helpful in solving complicated molecular structures in complex mixtures. In this paper GC-MS was used for the identification of reaction products in the oxidation of terpenes.
