Quantitative Determination of Dioxins in Drinking Water by Isotope Dilution using Triple Quadrupole GC-MS/MS

Polychlorinated dibenzodioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), generally termed as dioxins, are persistent organic pollutants. Their stabilities have been accumulating to environmental problems. In addition to the gas chromatograph coupled with high resolution mass spectrometry (GC-HRMS) system, EU regulation 589/2014 has included the use of tandem mass-spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) system as a confirmatory method for determination of dioxins in feed and food. This motivates the use of the inexpensive and user-friendly GC-MS/MS system to identify and quantify dioxins. In this study, we report a method developed with the cost-effective triple quadrupole GC-MS/MS system for high sensitivity detection and quantification of dioxins in water samples, as a proposed alternative to the EPA method 1613 with a change of detector.
