Agilent 5975 inert MSD VOC Analysis Application Note
This document details the development of an eMethod (electronic method) for analyzing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in water. The method utilizes a combination of Agilent Technologies equipment, specifically the 6890N GC and the new 5975 inert MSD, paired with a Teledyne Tekmar Velocity XPT purge & trap system.
The application demonstrates how to use the new Agilent G1701DA software (version 2.0.00) to import and export methods as single packages called eMethods. This allows for easy transfer of GC/MS analysis parameters, including calibration tables and retention time locking files, between different instruments without manual re-entry. This manual is written in Japanese.
