We demonstrate the capabilities of Thermo Scientific TraceFinder software with a mixture of triazine compounds spiked into drinking water samples was analyzed. Using direct injections of 20 mL samples (with on-line preconcentration), low- and sub-pg/mL (ppt) levels were detected. The ability to analyze these drinking water samples with on-line preconcentration saves considerable time and expense compared to solid phase extraction techniques.

The Thermo Scientific HPLC system is applied for the analysis of triazine herbicides. The separation is performed on a Thermo Scientific Acclaim 120 C18 column, with MS detection.

The Thermo Scientific HPLC system is applied for the analysis of water pollutants. The separation is performed on a Thermo Scientific Hypercarb column, with MS detection.

In this work the suitability and selective performance of the Thermo Scientific TraceGOLD TG-5SilMS for the analysis of total organic carbon was demonstrated. TOC can be used as a useful measure of the broad estimation or residual pesticides and other carbonaceous material. It is especially useful when coupled to mass selective detection as it allows identification and quantification of specific contaminating materials. Note the retention times in the component table match the component number and are not the actual retention time.

A Thermo Scientific HPLC system was applied for the determination of triazine herbicides and pesticides. The separation was performed on a Thermo Scientific Accucore C18 column in less than 3 minutes, with UV detection at 280 nm.
