Gas Chromatography- Mass Spectrometry Study of Perfumes

Abstract

I analyzed 4 differet samples of perfume with and without methanol. Using a long and short time frame to see which method was better. With these methods I was able to further investigate if the samples contained allergens. These allergens could be harmful for human consumption, with skin irritation been one of the effects. The GC-MS was quite helpful with the analysis of perfumes as the base components of perfumes were detected along with many others.
