Glycerol trinitrate. Application of gas chromatography with electron capture detection in analysing in air samples
Journal Title: Podstawy i Metody Oceny Środowiska Pracy - Year 2013, Vol 29, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper describes a fully validated method for analysing glyceryl trinitrate (nitroglycerin) with gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC/ECD). The lowest concentration of glyceryl trinitrate, which can be determined with this method is 0.007 mg/m3. The use of RTX-5MS capillary column makes it possible to determine glyceryl trinitrate in the presence of ethylene glycol dinitrate. This method is based on collecting glyceryl trinitrate on a sorbent tube filled with silica gel. The method of determining glyceryl trinitrate has been recorded as an analytical procedure, which is available in the Appendix.
