I am a student in a co-op work term trying to figure out how to properly analyze the above on GC. MDEA and it’s degradation products seem to work well on a DB Wax column but the water content is likely producing backflash and henceforth carryover. DEA has a poor response factor and THEED (one of the degradation components) doesn’t seem to show up (plus I don’t know where can one purchase THEED? Our one old old vial is almost empty). I’ve read about derivatization but we are trying to optimize a method for a high volume of samples and a low turnaround time. Any suggestions?
