State Crime Lab Uses Combined Scan/SIM by GC/MS to Boost Drug Analysis Throughput
4 PagesThe Mississippi Crime Laboratory (MCL) is using a PerkinElmer ® Clarus ® 500 Gas Chromatograph/ Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS) in selected ion and full ion (SIFI™) mode for their drug analysis. SIFI combines scan and selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode to increase drug analysis throughput by ap- proximately 100%. Doing drug analysis in the past required two separate GC/MS injections to pos- itively identify drugs in samples. The first injection was in
