Nitrosamines

Following a reaction between secondary or tertiary amines with a nitrosating agent, mutagenic impurities known as Nitrosamines are produced which are a concern due to their potentially carcinogenic properties. 

 

A GC is coupled with an Agilent Ultivo Triple Quad intrumient by SICRIT® Ion Source to achieve high levels of sensitivity - outperforming traditional GC-MS and LC-MS methods.
