| Derivatisation reagents for GC |
 |
| Purpose of derivatisation |
 |
improved volatility, better thermal stability or a lower limit of detection in GC |
 |
prerequisite: quantitative, rapid and reproducible formation of only one derivative |
 |
halogen atoms introduced by derivatisation (e. g. trifluoroacetates) allow specific detection (ECD) with the advantage of high sensitivity |
 |
elution orders and fragmentation patterns in MS can be influenced by a specific derivatisation |
