Hi
Does anyone know where i could buy a TEA ,to analyze Nitrosamines.
We wanted to try NPD or MS,but TEA seems to be the gold detector for Nitrosamines analysis.
Does anyone has experience with TEA.
Thanks

We used a TEA analyzer for N-nitrosamines on a GC back in the late 1970s-early 1980s (it was even an isothermal-only GC!). That was the first Thermo Electron analyzer, and it was about 5 feet tall, but lots of empty room inside so components were accessible. We even trimethylsilylated N-nitrosodiethanolamine. It was awkward, but it did work, at low levels. What really scares me about this business is: we've done almost everything....

I am pretty sure TEA will do the job, but i believe NPD is a better choice for the compound you analyzing.
