Mercury Speciation Analysis by Gas Chromatography / Electron Impact / Mass Spectroscopy
S. V. Babko J. L. Montgomery D. M. Battleson, MSE Technology Applications, Inc
These developmental experiments focused on determining the behavior of organic and inorganic mercury species in a GC/MS system (1) by direct insertion of mercury compounds into an electron impact mass spectrometer (EI/MS), (2) by injection of liquid standards into a GC/EI/MS system, and (3) by head space sampling using solid phase microextraction (SPME).
