Identification of natural components by GCMS
Focusing on sandalwood (Byakudan), which is used as a raw material for incense! Here is an example of component analysis using GC-MS.
Due to the risk of depletion of natural ingredients, artificially synthesized alternative components may be used, and their identification is suitable for separation and analysis using methods such as GCMS. This time, we focused on sandalwood (Byakudan), which is used as a raw material for incense. We tested whether the components of sandalwood could be detected in two types of incense (A and B) with its fragrance. In incense A, santanol was detected, while in incense B, santanol was not detected, and another fragrant component was found. Among these, bugdanol is a type of synthetic fragrance, and due to its structural characteristics, it is believed to have a sandalwood-like scent. [Components of Incense A] ■ Bugdanol: Trace amounts ■ Cedrol: None ■ α-Santalol: Present ■ β-Santalol: Present *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Chemical Analysis Concierge Service
We would like to introduce our "Chemical Analysis - Trust Us Service." When conducting component analysis of foreign substances or stains on products, it can be challenging to determine whether organic analysis or inorganic analysis is more suitable, and which specific analysis within organic or inorganic is the most appropriate. We provide a comprehensive service for customers who are struggling with the selection of analysis methods. Since each analysis device can measure different targets, it is necessary to choose a method that fits the purpose based on the information available.

Analysis of mica sheet adhesive components using GC/MS.
This is an introduction to the analysis of adhesive components in mica sheets using GC/MS. To investigate what components are contained in the mica sheets, spectroscopic measurements were conducted, suggesting that silicone-based adhesives are used. To determine the composition of the silicone-based adhesive, GC/MS measurements were performed. It was found that pentacyclooctasiloxane is used, and it was also discovered that dibutyl phthalate is added as a plasticizer and linear saturated hydrocarbons such as tridecane are added as lubricants.
