Analysis of Geosmin and 2-Methylisoborneol Utilizing the Stratum PTC and Aquatek 70

Geosmin and 2-Methylisoborneol are organic compounds that have a distinct scent. These compounds also have an extremely low odor detection threshold and because of this, many drinking water laboratories require detection levels of below 10ppt. This application note investigates the detection of Geosmin and 2-Methylisoborneol at a 1ppt level utilizing Purge and Trap (P&T) coupled with a Gas Chromatograph and Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS).
