How it works

The Agilent 5890 can be coupled with a mass selective detector for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis, allowing for identification of separated compounds by their mass spectra.[2][3]

Applications

The Agilent 5890 has been applied in the characterization of essential oils, such as the analysis of sage essential oil composition, and in environmental studies for determining carbon isotope ratios of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in air particulate matter.[2][3]
