Analyzing VOCs from the Great Barrier Reef

Australia's Great Barrier Reef (GBR) stretches over 2300 km and is composed of over 3000 individual reef systems. The health of the reef therefore often comes under international scrutiny. Hilton Swan from Southern Cross University in Australia has been investigating volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from the Great Barrier Reef using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). He recently spoke to us about this work. read more

Detection of Organochlorine Pesticides by GC-ECD Following U.S. EPA Method 8081

Organochlorine insecticides are among the oldest and most toxic synthetic pesticides. First introduced in the 1940s, these chemicals were used extensively until most of them were banned in the 1970s and 1980s due to their health risks. This application note describes a convenient method for analyzing and quantifying organochlorinated pesticides via GC and ECD. Download now
