Glufosinate, N-Acetylglufosinate, and Glufosinate Propanoic Acid
Analysis of these Compounds can be problematic with other methods and poor peak shape may occur. In contrast, the Peaks obtained in this method are very sharp and symmetrical and can be applied to food products containing these types of Compounds.
Peaks:
1. Glufosinate m/z 180.0431 [M-H]–
2. N-Acetylglufosinate m/z 222.00 [M-H]–
3. Glufosinate Propanoic Acid m/z 151.00 [M-H]–
