GC/MS (Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry)

Volatile and Semi-volatile organics analyses. GC/MS analysis is routinely used to analyze groundwater, wastewater, drinking water, soils, and wastes for industrial pollutants and suspected but unknown organic contaminants. To accurately identify and quantify organic compounds, the equipment in the GC/MS Section is unsurpassed. GC/MS can easily accommodate custom analysis, as well as a range of standard analyses. By definition, data produced by this instrumentation includes both chromatography and unique mass spectra of compounds. It is the unique spectra that assists analysts in providing positive identification of compounds. ELS utilizes 3 Agilent HP 6890 Gas Chromatograph with Agilent HP 5973 MSD Detector Systems.
