ATS offers advanced analytical capabilities with our Triple Quadrupole Gas Chromatograph / Mass Spectrometer, which allows for low detection limits on a variety of organic compounds. Many clients request GC-MS services to ensure their product materials remain compliant with consumer safety standards and regulations.
Our chemical analysis lab returns accurate findings within a quick turnaround window because of our chemists’ extensive experience in regularly performing GC-MS analysis and testing for a wide variety of products and compounds.
Our Equipment Allows for:
- Significantly increasing sample throughput by using an autosampler that can hold 150 sample vials.
- Selectively analyzing the compounds of interest in a complex matrix that allows the instrument to only analyze for the compounds of interest without having to worry about the other compounds that may be present.
- Achieving detection limits at the ppt (parts per trillion) level of most organic compounds. This sensitivity is several orders of magnitude lower than traditional GC-MS analysis and testing units. Most customers and regulatory agencies are continuing to request lower detection limits for organic compounds, particularly those that may be used in a children’s product or toy.
Most Common Applications of GC-MS Analysis/Testing:
- Phthalate Plasticizers
- Brominated Flame Retardants
- Flavors
- Fragrances
- Azo Dyes
- PCB
- Detection of Organic Impurities in Food
- Detection of Organic Impurities in Water
