Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are environmental pollutants and are widespread across the globe mainly due to long-term anthropogenic sources of pollution. Due to their high mutagenic and carcinogenic potential a sensitive determination is mandatory. The used system configuration makes it possible to switch between direct injection via autosampler and injection with an auxiliary pump (feed pump) without changing/replumbing the system. The use of autosampler injection or injection via feed pump enables the user to inject a broad variety of different volumes from μl to ml scale.
Exemplary structures of selected PAHs
Direct injection via autosampler of mixed standard, (1) fluoranthene, (2) benzo[b]fluoranthene, (3) benzo[k]fluoranthene, (4) benzo[a]pyrene, (5) benzo[g,h,i]perylene, (6) indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene
Direct injection on SPE via autosampler, (1) fluoranthene, (2) benzo[b] fluoranthene, (3) benzo[k]fluoranthene, (4) benzo[a]pyrene, (5) benzo[g,h,i] perylene, (6) indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene
