Description

General description

Dodecane is a clear, colorless liquid, having a mild aliphatic hydrocarbon odor, and belongs to the family of acyclic alkanes.

Application

The analytical standard can also be used as follows:

• Simultaneous determination of volatile organic compounds by gas chromatography
• Determination of seven volatile organic compounds in the surgically resected colonic tissue samples of colorectal cancer patients by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) following their extraction by headspace- and direct injection- based solid phase microextraction (SPME)
• Measurement of concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in biogas samples obtained from three different biogas plants by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
• Quantification of 29 organic air pollutants, consisting of alkanes, carbonyls, terpenes, and aromatic hydrocarbons, in the indoor air of 22 houses using passive samplers
• Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method-based profiling of volatile organic compounds in the olive fruit headspace extracts
