DESCRIPTION
General description
2-Methylpentane is a type of branched alkane classified under the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) family of chemicals.
Application
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.2-Methylpentane has been used as a reference standard for the determination of 2-methylpentane as odor marker of lung cancer in human breath samples by gas chromatography-time of flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOF MS). It may be used as a reference standard for the determination of 2-methylpentane in virgin olive oil samples by headspace solid-phase microextraction (SPME) followed by analysis using GC-MS coupled to flame ionization detector (FID), in different microenvironments by multibed adsorption and short-path thermal desorption followed by GC-MS and in exhaled air of patients with non-small cells lung cancer (NSCLC) by GC-MS.
