Evaluation of multiple alternative instrument platforms for targeted and non‐targeted dioxin and furan analysis

The use of gas chromatography coupled to high-resolution magnetic sector mass spectrometers (GC-HRMS) is well established for dioxin and furan analysis. However, the use of gas chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole (MS/MS) and time of flight (TOF) mass spectrometers with atmospheric pressure ionization (API) and traditional electron ionization (EI) for dioxin and furan analysis is emerging as a viable alternative to GC-HRMS screening. …
