Flame photometric detector comparison

Various alkyl and aryltin compounds were determined in aquatic matrices, namely sediments, biota and water by means of gas chromatographic methods. In this work, comparisons of single or dual flame photometric detectors and electron capture detectors were reported (Tolosa et al., 1991). Sample preparations included acid digestion, extraction, formation of methyl derivatives and clean-up with alumina prior to gas chromatographic analysis. With the electron capture detector, cold on-column injection of organo-tin chlorides was studied. The conclusion was that a single or dual flame photometric detector equipped with a 600 nm interference filter yielded the best performance for determinations of tin species as methyl derivatives. Detection limits for the method using flame...

The nose is an extremely sensitive detector of odors it can be matched only by the most sensitive instrumental techniques. Many smells are identified by comparison with pure compounds diluted by odor-free air until they are near the odor threshold limit. However, with the introduction of flame photometric detectors it has been possible to measure the concentration of the sulfur compounds giving rise to odors in the ppb range with the aid of preconcentration (by a fector of 10 to 10. ...
