Product Details
- The novel HES 2.0 ion source delivers confident attogram-level analysis even in complex matrices providing best-in-class instrument uptime.
- JetClean reduces or even eliminates the need for manual ion source cleanings, reducing instrument downtime and optimizing workflow efficiency.
- MassHunter Optimizer for GC/TQ streamlines the transfer of GC/MSD methods to GC/TQ and modernized Retention Time Locking functionality improves reproducibly after column maintenance or transferring methods between GC systems.
- Twice-as-fast SWARM autotune with incorporated diagnostic features pairs with the built-in intelligence of the 8890, 8850, and Intuvo GCs for improved system diagnostics and simplified access to powerful operations through an integrated touch screen and browser interface.
- Data acquisition modes like simultaneous dMRM and scan mode and data-dependent tMRM enable targeted screening with confident quantitation of hundreds of analytes in a single run.
- The heated hyperbolic gold quadrupole, hexapole collision cell with linear acceleration technology, and triple off-axis detector work together to provide enhanced selectivity and reduced neutral noise for optimal GC/TQ performance.
- Built-in technical and procedural controls ensure data integrity and help facilitate compliance with electronic record regulations such as US FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and EU Annex 11.
- The Agilent Pesticides and Environmental Pollutants 4.0 Database contains over 1,100 compounds with multiple transitions per compound and over 7,500 matrix-optimized MRM transitions, helping you build acquisition methods that reduce matrix interferences.
- The Agilent Reference Compound Introduction Valve enables easy analysis of environmental dioxins, while meeting the requirements and strict method detection limits of the EPA-approved alternative testing procedure.
- To enable a better-informed, sustainable choice, Agilent has partnered with My Green Lab to have the 7010D GC/TQ independently audited for the Accountability, Consistency, and Transparency (ACT) label.

Recent Advances in the Routine Analysis of Dioxins in Food and Environmental Samples
In this webcast we will present how we implemented triple quadrupole GC–MS for the routine analysis of dioxins in environmental and food samples according to EPA and SANTE guidelines. We will discuss technological advances like a high efficiency source, allowing routine testing labs to easily meet regulatory performance criteria set by USEPA 1613 for environmental samples and EU 644/2017 for food samples. Further, we will discuss how the use of hydrogen carrier gas can significantly reduce lab operating costs compared to helium while still meeting regulatory limits of detection.
