摘要

Traditionally, gas chromatography – mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis has used a targeted approach called selected ion monitoring (SIM) to quantify specific compounds that may have adverse health effects. Due to method limitations and the constraints of preparing duplicate samples, the information that could be obtained from separately collecting the full scan chromatogram of the sample has often been sacrificed. However, a hybrid technique called synchronous SIM/scan mode that switches back and forth between the two acquisition methods has become available from equipment manufacturers that maintains the accuracy and sensitivity of SIM for targeted analysis while also providing the full scan chromatogram for discovery of non-target compounds. We have explored the value and performance of this new technology using calibration data and real-world breath samples from a joint EPA/NIOSH collaboration that assessed the safety of firefighters’ protective gear during controlled structural burns. Collecting field samples is costly and must be performed strategically to ensure that time points and replicates are accurate and representative of the intended population. This is especially difficult, if not impossible, to accomplish with firefighters who are working under volatile conditions. The synchronous SIM/scan method decreases the number of field samples that need to be collected by half and reduces error in trying to recreate time points since a breath sample from a single sorbent tube can be used to collect both the SIM and scan data simultaneously. This work demonstrates the performance of the technology using calibration data. As a practical demonstration of the method, we investigate thirty-six firefighter breath samples, document organic compounds of interest, and identify additional non-target compounds.
