摘要
The application of high resolution gas chromatography in combination with tandem mass spectrometry in an ion trap was tested to substitute the expensive high resolution mass spectrometry in analysing polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans in sewage effluents. In tandem mass spectrometry, a set of parameters has to be optimised in order to attain the required sensitivity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time a method development for analysing PCDD/Fs with GC-MS/MS in an ion trap is described in this detail. Nine parameters are varied, including isolation window, collision induced dissociation (CID) amplitude, CID time, acquisition mass range, broadband amplitude, CID bandwidth, modulation range, filament current and ion trap temperature. This technique can be adapted to other analytes, By this optimisation, limits of detection of 0.01-0.05 ng/l are obtained. With its selectivity and sensitivity tandem mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for the determination of PCDD/Fs in water samples. 55 sewage effluent samples from Germany were analysed.
