This document describes a multi-residue analysis using an Agilent J&W FactorFour VF-35ms column for PAHs, PCBs, and OCPs. PAHs are compounds with two or more aromatic rings formed during incomplete combustion or pyrolysis of organic matter. OCPs are pesticides containing carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine atoms that break down slowly, persist in the environment, and bioaccumulate in organisms. PCBs are characterized by two phenyl groups with varying numbers of chlorine atoms and are used in various industrial and commercial applications. The method allows for the analysis of 16 EPA PAHs, 17 PCBs (including 6 EU marker PCBs), and 24 common OCPs in a single run at different concentration levels.
This document details a multi-residue analysis method for separating polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in a single operation. The method utilizes Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) with the Agilent J&W FactorFour VF-35ms column to screen and quantify these compounds efficiently.
