General description

Tetradecane is a straight-chain alkane, classified as a volatile organic compound (VOC).

Application

The analytical standard can also be used as follows:

  • Determination of seven volatile organic compounds in the surgically resected colonic tissue samples of colorectal cancer patients by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) following their extraction by headspace- and direct injection- based solid phase microextraction (SPME)
  • Measurement of concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in biogas samples obtained from three different biogas plants by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
  • Simultaneous identification and determination of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) from air samples using a styrene-divinylbenzene polymer particle and activated carbon particles based sampling device and GC-MS
  • Development and validation of a thermal desorption method coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for the determination of VOCs in biogas samples after their collection into inert film bags for sample treatment in multi-sorbent bed tubes
  • Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method-based profiling of volatile organic compounds in the olive fruit headspace extracts
