Leco Pegasus III GC-TOF Mass Spectrometer

This fast GC-MS is one of the workhorses of the lab. It is capable of running fast GC because the Time-Of-Flight mass spectrometer can sample up to 500 spectra a second and modern deconvolution methods allow it to find clean mass spectra in complex, not to mention crowded, chromatograms. It also has a very high sensitivity and good mass accuracy.

Applications:

  • Quantification of the products from TMAH thermochemolysis
  • General quantitation / identification of compounds
