2. Introduction – Hyphenated techniques It is define as the combination or hyphenation between Spectroscopic and separation (chromatographic) technique is known as Hyphenated Technique. Spectroscopic + Chromatographic Hyphenation Hyphenated Technique. Hyphenated techniques combines chromatographic and spectral method to exploit the advantages of both. Chromatography produces pure fractions of chemical components in a mixture. Spectroscopy produces selective information for identification using standards or library spectra. Mass spectrometer provides information that aids in the identification and structural elucidation of each component.

3. Gas Chromatography- Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Gas Chromatography Separates mixture of components into individual Mass Spectrometry GC-MS Gas chromatography-Mass spectrometry Identifies (detects) molecules based on their molecular weight or mass A chemical analysis technique combining two instruments to provide for powerful separation and identification

4. GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY Gas Chromatography is an analytical technique that helps to separate and analyze a mixture of organic vaporizable or volatile compound. It runs on the principle of partitioning of volatile samples with gaseous mobile phase and liquid stationary phase. It is a process of separating components from the given crude drug by using a gaseous mobile phase.

5. BASIC INSTRUMENTATION OF GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY Carrier Gas Pressure regulator Flow controller Sample injection port Column Detectors Recorder

6. Carrier Gas : Served as mobile phase. Supplied in the steel tank under high pressure of 40-80 psi this passes into flow controllers. Example-nitrogen, helium, hydrogen and argon can also be used. Carrier gas should be inert, suitable for detector, should give best column performance and economic. Flow controller : Allows the operator to adjust the flow rate to desired operating level. Sample injection port : Separately heated to a temperature slightly above the column to made the analytical sample vaporize rapidly before entering to column. Column: 1) Capillary column – Inner Diameter is 1mm preferred is 0.25 and 0.32mm. Type- 1) Wall coated open tubular column. 2) Support coated open tubular column. 2) Packed column – Inner diameter 2- 4.6mm. Made up of stainless steel or glass.

7. Detectors: Detector is a device that converts some physical property of the molecule such as thermal conductivity. Mass flow rate detectors – Sensitive to the rate of flow of solute through the detector. 1) Flame ionization detector 2) Thermionic specific detector Concentration sensitive detectors – Thermal conductivity detector Electron capturing detector Applications: - Gas chromatography is used for the separation and analysis of mixtures. Anal ysis of toxic compounds, solvents, hydrocarbons as well in forensic field. Pollution studies, environmental analysis.

8. MASS SPECTROSCOPY Mass spectrometry is the analytical technique in which a mixture of ions is separated according to mass to charge ratios. Sample Volatile form Ionize Molecular ions Fragmentation Daughter ions Detector

9. INSTRUMENTATION Instrumentation: Sample Inlet System lonization Chamber Mass Analyzer Detector Vacuum System and Read Out System

10. GC-MS GC-MS, which is a hyphenated technique developed from coupling of GC and MS, was the first of its kind to become useful for research and development process. Mass spectra obtained by this hyphenated technique offer more structural information based on the interpretation of fragmentations. The fragment ions with different relative abundances can be compared with library spectra. Compounds that are adequately volatile, small, and stable in high temperature in GC conditions can easily be analyzed by GC-MS. In GC-MS, a sample is injected into the injection port of GC device, vaporized, separated in the GC MS detector, and recorded.

11. PRINCIPLE OF GC-MS The sample solution is injected into the GC inlet where it is vaporized and swept onto a chromatographic column by the carrier gas. The sample flows through column and compounds are separated by virtue of their relative interaction with the coating of the column and the carrier gas. Latter part of column passes through a heated transfer line and ends at entrance to ion source where compounds eluting from the column are converted to ions and detected according to their mass to charge m/z ratio.

12. NEED AND ADVANTAGES OF GC-MS It is important type of technique is used for the separation of organic and in organic compounds and it is having ability for separation high molecular weight hydrocarbons. It is used for separation and identification of volatile compounds and for determination of fragmentation pattern of compounds. It is also important for determination of protein, peptides, amino acid, nucleic acid, as well as naturally or biological compounds. It is one of the powerful technique is used for qualitative and quantitative analysis. It is having high resolution and separation capacity. Good accuracy and precision.

16. Gas CHROMATOGRAPHY- ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROSCOPY (GC-AAS) This technique is combination of gas chromatography with atomic absorption spectroscopy. AAS is one of the elemental analysis techniques. GC performs the separation of the components and with the help of AAS the elemental identification of the component is performed. Elemental composition of every peak separated by GC is determined. GC effluent is directly introduced into the Quartz atomization furnace, analytes are first atomized using microwave irradiation, where the atoms are transferred to electronically excited state. Then these electrons are return to the lower energy levels at that time photons are emitted at certain wavelength that are characteristic of the particular element. In both the techniques sample is in gas phase so the techniques are complementary to each other.

17. ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROSCOPY Liquid sample Formation of droplets Fine residue Formation of neutral atoms Absorption of radiation (provided by source hollow cathode lamp) of specific wavelength by neutral atoms Measurement of wavelength and intensity of absorbed radiation

18. Instrumentation: GC Unit Light source Atomizer Monochromators Detectors

19. INSTRUMENTATION OF GC-AAS GC Unit ( Gas Chromatography ) Radiation source of AAS- 1) Hollow cathode lamp 2) Electrodeless discharge lamp Atomizers- Atomization is separation of particles into individual molecules and breaking molecules into atoms. This is done by exposing the analyte to high temperatures in a flame or graphite furnace atomizer converts the liquid into small droplets which are easily vapourised . 1) Flame atomisers – Total consumption burner- The sample is atomized into the flame, the sample solution, the fuel, and oxidizing gases are passed separate passages to meet at the opening of the base of flame. Flame breaks the sample in liquid form into the droplets evaporates and burns leaving the residue which is reduced to atoms. Premixed burner - It is most widely used because of uniformity in flame intensity

20. 2) Non-flame atomisers - (Electrothermal atomizer) Nebulization- Conversion of the liquid sample to a fine spray Desolvation - Solid atoms are mixed with the gaseous fuel. Volatilization- Solid atoms are converted to a vapor in the flame. Monochromators : Prism monochromator : - Quartz material is used for making prism, as quartz is transparent over entire region. Grating monochromator: - It consists of a series of parallel straight lines cut into a plane surface. Detector : Photomultiplier Tubes :- 1) Made of a glass vacuum tube Photocathode 2) Several dynodes 3) One anode.

21. APPLICATIONS In determining the levels of metabolites in body fluids like plasma, serum, urine. Analysis of foods like carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, steroids, drug and pesticide residues. Dairy product analysis like milk, butter-for detection of aldehydes, milk sugars, ketones and fatty acids. Separation and identification of volatile materials, plastics, natural and synthetic polymers, paints and microbiological samples. GC-AAS is main tool used in sports anti doping laboratories to test athletes urine samples for prohibited performance enhancing drugs. Ex: anabolic steroids. Impurity profiling of pharmaceuticals. Model impurity profiling: GC-AAS trace of commercial sample of propranolol with impurities
