Benzothiazoles in water

Mobile Lab for in-situ Benzothiazoles Monitoring as emerging contaminants in some water sources

Benzothiazoles can be considered emerging contaminants from organic synthesis and are used as vulcanization accelerators in products such as tires from which can be released, contaminating soil and water. The existing system allows the analysis of benzothiazole (BT) and related compounds in waters ambient through the HS-SPME-GC/MSD-SIM technique with derivatization in-situ on the SPME fiber. It consists of an PAL injector for the preparation of the environmental sample, that captured the analytes by the derivatization (in-situ) on the fiber and subsequent analysis for the desorption of the fiber in the GC/MSD-SIM system.
