| Popis: | The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of gas chromatography (GC)-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (QqQ, MS/MS) as an alternative to the standard GC-high resolution mass spectrometry (GC-HR/MS) for soils contaminated with polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs). GC-QqQ (MS/MS) using a dynamic multiple reaction monitoring (dMRM) mode was optimized for the quantitative analysis of 17 PCDD/Fs. A comparative study between GC-QqQ (MS/MS) and GC-HR/MS was carried out to validate the results of actual field soil samples. Although GC-HR/MS has excellent sensitivity and selectivity, the validation parameters obtained by GC-QqQ (MS/MS) also met the recommended criteria of the standard method. The results for total and I-TEQ (international toxic equivalent) value of the PCDD/F concentrations of over 86.0 pg/g and 4.3 pg I-TEQ/g, respectively, in actual field soil samples showed good agreement between the two methods, falling within ±25% relative difference. In consideration of the remediation goal (100 pg I-TEQ/g), GC-QqQ (MS/MS) can be an alternative cost-effective method for use in soil remediation research. |
