Ethylene production was analysed by gas chromatography using an Agilent 7890A GC system (Agilent Technologies, Inc.) equipped with a PAL headspace autosampler and flame ionization detector as follows. An aliquot of 0.5 ml headspace pre-incubated to 35 °C for 30 s was injected and separated for 4 min on a GS-CarbonPLOT column (0.32 mm × 30 m, 3 μm; Agilent) at 60 °C and a He flow rate of 1.8 ml min−1.

Gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOF-MS) analysis was performed as previously described by Jung et al. [50 (link)]. For analysis, all dried samples were oximated with 50 μL of methoxyamine hydrochloride (20 mg/mL in pyridine) for 90 min at 30 °C and silylated with 50 μL of N-methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide for 30 min at 37 °C. The derivatized samples were analyzed on an Agilent 7890A GC system (Santa Clara, CA, USA) coupled with an Agilent 7693 auto-sampler and Pegasus® HT TOF MS (LECO Corp., St. Joseph, MI, USA). An Rtx-5MS column (30 m × 0.25 mm, 0.25-μm particle size, Restek Corp., St. Joseph, MI, USA) was used at a constant flow of 1.5 mL/min with helium used as the carrier gas. Next, 1 μL of the derivatized samples were injected into the GC in a splitless mode. The GC oven temperature was asset to 75 °C for 2 min, and then increased by 15 °C/min to 300 °C with a 3-min hold time as the final temperature. The mass data collection rate was set to 10 scans/s over a scan range of 50–1000 m/z followed by −70 eV of an electron ionization mode.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
