This method used hydride generation (HG) to generate elemental mercury which was made specific using gas chromatography (GC) to remove any organic interferences configured with a photoionization detector (PID). In 2021, we have developed a new simpler method of hydride generation by adding permanganate to the reducing solution to oxidize any organic compounds, we remove any residual water, then employ a PID with a 10.6 electron volt (eV) lamp to detect mercur

Accepted for presentation at PITTCON 2021:  AUTHORS: Jack Driscoll , President PID Analyzers, LLC and J ennifer Maclachlan, Managing Director, PID Analyzers, LLC Friday, March 12, SESSION START 1:30 PM OUR PRESENTATION @ 3:25pm Cannabis and Hemp - Current Topics Session Number: L53-0 Oral Abstract Presentations: Optimization of a GC/PID Method for Terpene Identification and Analysis Session Number: L53-06   Friday, March 12, 3:25 PM - 3:45 PM Description At PITTCON 2020 in Chicago, IL we discussed "Analysis of Medical Cannabis Terpenes by GC-PID" and have spent a significant amount of lab time optimizing the gas chromatography (GC) by photoionization detector (PID) method.This optimized method includes improved chromatography (improved low dead volume PID, peak resolution and comparative analysis of carrier gases), the addition of proportional valves for the management of flow control and makeup gas, evaluation of methods for sample handling: Headspace, dilution, and, direct
