Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Technology

Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) is an analytical method that combines the features of gas-chromatography and mass spectrometry to identify different substances within a test sample. GC-MS can be used to separate complex mixtures, quantify analytes, identify unknown peaks and determine trace levels of contamination. It is a useful tool to identify and measure the concentration of chemicals found in foods, consumer products, pharmaceuticals, fuels, the environment, and more. GC-MS provides enhanced sample identification, higher sensitivity, an increased range of analyzable samples, and faster results, which enable a whole new range of applications for GC-MS in several areas.
