Technical Note: Fast two-dimensional GC-MS with thermal extraction for anhydro-sugars in fine aerosols [PDF]
A fast two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC-MS) method that uses heart-cutting and thermal extraction (TE) and requires no chemical derivatization was developed for the determination of anhydro-sugars in fine aerosols.
