Direct Sample Inlet Unit for GCMS-TQ Series, GCMS-QP2020/QP2010 Series
Direct sample injection (DI) is a method in which a sample is injected directly into the ion source without passing through the gas chromatograph (GC). This is an effective method for measuring the mass spectra of synthetic compounds, and can be used easily for the usual GC-MS configuration. By using this in combination with Smart EI/CI ion source, EI and CI mass spectra can easily be collected.
Solutions for Analysis of Ethylene Oxide and 2-Chloroethanol in Food
Even though Ethylene oxide (EtO / EO) is well-known to be a toxic compound with carcinogenic and mutagenic concerns, it has been widely used for fumigation in the food industry because it effectively reduces or eliminates microbiological contamination with bacteria/fungi. The recent recall of food products exported to the EU due to non-compliance with EU regulations has highlighted the importance of quantitation of EtO and 2-CE residues in food.
Latest issue of Shimadzu Journal, featuring Forensics / Toxicology, has come out.
This issue focuses on "Forensics / Toxicology", an area where science and technology are particularly important and needed. It starts with two customer interviews.
Qualitative and quantitative analysis of microplastics in environmental samples by pyrolysis-GC/MS
In recent years, identification and quantitation using pyrolysis-GC MS (Py-GC/MS) have been considered to evaluate the chemical properties of microplastics.
Air
Shimadzu provides analytical equipment and solutions that can monitor not only the atmospheric environment, but also indoor working environments and direct emission sources. Here are some examples of measurements of inorganic and organic components in the air and indoor environment.
Shimadzu has upgraded Peakintelligence™ for GCMS (Ver. 2.0), Optional Software for LabSolutions Insight DB
Peakintelligence for GCMS is equipped with new AI peak integration algorithms that significantly shorten the time needed for peak integration in the GC/MS/MS quantitative processing work sequence. AI algorithms trained with peak integration know-how provide peak integration on par with that of an experienced user, so configuring or adjusting parameters is not required. In addition, the software can correctly detect low-concentration samples.
