Consolidated GC-MS/MS Analysis of PAHs in Gasoline Combustion Dust

Article Preview

Abstract:

Dust samples of gasoline and disruptors combustion were analyzed by GC-MS/MS. The use of GC-MS/MS determination in the SRM mode, provided the unequivocal identification of the target analytes. The results show that in the gasoline combustion dust samples containing mainly fluorene, phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene and other PAHs. GC-MS/MS is an invaluable analytical technique in suspected arson cases.
