On-line screening of bioactive compounds and application of comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry for the analysis of birch bark
… methods. In this system, high-performance liquid chromatography separates complex mixtures, and a post-column biochemical assay determines the activity of the individual compounds present in the mixtures. At the same time, parallel chemical detection techniques (e.g., diode-array detection, mass …

Two-dimensional gas chromatography : a novel technique for iron low temperature Fischer-Tropsch selectivity studies
… in analytical technology and the development of comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GCxGC) it may now be possible to analyze the complex Fischer-Tropsch products in a relatively short time while delivering good separation of even minor compounds such as oxygenates and branched …

Using passive samplers to assess bioavailability, toxicity, and reactivity of hydrophobic organic chemicals (HOCs)
… organic chemicals based on passive sampling and comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatography (GC × GC). Using GC × GC retention times, we show that lipid-water and samplerwater partition coefficients can be estimated within a factor of 2 and 3, respectively. The method was then applied to …

Analysis of the volatile organic compounds produced by the decomposition of pig carcasses and human remains
… and were analyzed using thermal desorption gas chromatography mass spectrometry (TD-GC-MS). The difficulties associated with the non-target analysis of complex samples led to the further analysis of decomposition odour using a novel application of thermal desorption coupled to comprehensive …

Biodegradation, water solubility and characterisation studies of unresolved complex mixtures (UCMs) of aromatic hydrocarbons
… control in the dissolution of complex mixtures. Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography-time of flight-mass spectrometry (GCxGC-ToF-MS) analysis was used to provide vastly increased separation power and characterisation of a water 'soluble' monoaromatic UCM. Over 1200 compounds were …
