Application
- Analysis of estrogenic compounds in water samples using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
- Quantification of α-pyrrolidinovalerophenone (α-PVP) and its metabolites in urine samples using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
Features and Benefits
- BSTFA is very versatile, reacting with a range of polar organic compounds and replacing active hydrogens with a −Si(CH3)3 (trimethylsilyl) group.
- Reacts rapidly and more completely than BSA.;
- TMCS increases the reactivity of BSTFA (or other silylation reagents).
- Amides and many secondary amines and hindered hydroxyls, incompletely derivatized by BSTFA alone, can be derivatized by adding 1-20% TMCS to BSTFA.
- Has good solvent properties and can function as a silylation reagent without additional solvents.
- Alternatively, the mixture is very soluble in most commonly used silylation solvents.
