LC/MS Analysis of Haloacetic Acids JJ-50 2D

LC/MS Analysis of Haloacetic Acids (JJ-50 2D)

Haloacetic acid is one type of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) generated
during water purification. The lower limit set by drinking-water quality
control law in Japan are; trichloroacetic acid (TCAA). In the past, GC/MS was used as the standard
method for haloacetic acid analysis, but recently LC/MS method has also
become a standard method (April, 2012 in Japan). Three haloacetic acids
were simultaneously analyzed by a multi-mode column, RSpak JJ-50 2D, using isocratic condition.
