Development of a gas chromatograph for trace level measurement of peroxyacetyl nitrate using chemical amplification

A gas chromatographic technique for trace level detection of peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) that relies on postcolumn chemical amplification as a means of improving the detection limit has been developed. This technique offers a sensitive method for trace level ambient PAN measurement without sample pre...
