Agilent 6890 Plus GC (FID) and 5973 MSD with 208 V service (5973 GC-MSD)

Franek Technologies LPS Catalog Number FT1-5973CS2-AG – extended run time

Instrument Description: The Agilent 5973 GC-MSD is highly sensitive benchtop mass spectrometer combining the Agilent 6890 Plus Fast Oven, Gerstel Autosampler, ODP Sniff Port, and Agilent 5973 with an inert Mass Selective Detector for analysis of active compounds such as pesticides, drugs of abuse and chemical warfare agents.

While pesticides improve crop yields and help alleviate food shortages, many of the chemicals used have deleterious effects on health.  To ensure safe foods, in excess of 700 pesticides are regulated worldwide.  Many laboratories qualify samples using a GC and a pesticide-screening program identifying each pesticide, or other organic contaminant, by its retention time.  Following screening, samples containing pesticides that exceed regulated levels are further analyzed for confirmation on a GC equipped with a Mass Selective Detector (MSD).  Symrise utilizes these instruments to screen for contaminants in its Flavor Analysis Laboratory.

Application: Active compound screening such as pesticides, contaminants, drugs of abuse and chemical warfare agents.

Agilent 6890N Network GC System - Fast Oven Option

Franek Technologies LPS Catalog Number FT1-6890GCF-AG – extended run time

Instrument Description: The Agilent 6890N Network GC Systems with the Fast Oven Option and software make it possible to analyze samples with high levels of matrix contamination.

Tools such as mass spectral deconvolution, reliable and inert effluent splitters, and column backflushing capabilities can be combined to produce large timesavings for a complete analysis.  By accelerating the chromatographic run, post-run bakeout, and data interpretation steps, analysis times can be shortened by at least three-fold versus conventional methods.  These techniques are especially useful in analyses with high levels of matrix background clutter, such as the inspection of the food supply for contaminants.  In addition to monitoring for pesticide residues and trace element contamination, the threat of terrorism has recently raised concerns over deliberate contamination of food with other toxic materials.  The Agilent 6890N with the Fast Oven option is a GC/MS system for the rapid screening of foodstuffs for chemical contaminants with a special emphasis on pesticides, organophosphorus, and organosulfur compounds.  Symrise utilizes this instrument to screen for contaminants in its Flavor Analysis Laboratory.

Application: Active compound screening such as pesticides, contaminants, drugs of abuse and chemical warfare agents
