The “How It Works – Troubleshooting Series” provides simple troubleshooting techniques to optimize your gas standard generator.
Food Flavorings and Additives
Calibration Gas Standards for Food Flavorings and Additives
The health and environmental impacts of food additives and preservatives are becoming more prominent. To ensure that foodstuffs meet quality and regulatory guidelines, proper calibration of analyzers for these additives is required. Among the common additives are flavorings like Vanillin, Eugenol and d-Limonene, Terpenes like α-pinene and β-pinene, and preservatives like benzoic acid. While many standards for foodstuffs are provided in liquids for Liquid Chromatography analysis, KIN-TEK Analytical, Inc. has developed permeation tubes for creating gas standards that are easily quantifiable for calibration of gas chromatographs, GC/MS, or other gas detection devices.
The Trace Source™ Permeation Tube technology is employed in KIN-TEK’s Gas Standard Generators to provide accurate, on-demand calibration standards. Each permeation tube and gas standard generator include a Calibration Certificate traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). KIN-TEK delivers trace gas calibration product solutions and services worldwide and offers over 550 types of chemical gas standards.

Gas Standards CWA
Gas Standards for Chemical Warfare Agent (CWA) Simulants
Recent world events have reinforced the need for accurate detection and analysis of trace concentration Chemical Warfare Agents (CWAs).
Calibrating analytical devices using real agents is dangerous and difficult so simulants such as Dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) and Diisopropylmethylphosphonate (DIMP) are used as G-agent simulants and Methyl salicylate (MS) and 2-Chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES) are simulants for HD agents.
KIN-TEK Analytical, Inc. offers several CWA simulants for calibrating detectors or researching new methods of rapid detection. Trace Source disposable permeation tubes used within a FlexStream™ Permeation System provide an excellent method for creating high quality gas standards. Dilution of the output gas from the permeation tube provides step changes for creating a calibration curve of different concentrations. Secondary dilution capability with the addition of controlled %RH humidified gas in the right matrix provides the best combination to test for real life detection scenarios that would occur in humid environments.

Propulsion compounds
With increased interest in space flight and exploration, monitoring and controlling propulsion compounds and resulting pollutants is critical. Many space propulsion compounds are hypergolic propellants such as Hydrazine, Methyl hydrazine, and Aniline and their resulting atmospheric pollutants, such as Hydrogen chloride, Carbon monoxide/dioxide, and Ethane need to be monitored and analyzed.
KIN-TEK Analytical, Inc. offers over 550 compounds in Trace Source™ permeation tubes for use in gas standard generators. Trace Source™ permeation tubes are easy to use and safe to handle and create precise gas standards for calibrating monitoring and detection devices. For a full list of products visit www.kin-tek.com.
Complex Gas Mixtures for Air Quality Analysis
Do you need complex gas mixtures for calibration?
The analysis of various gas mixtures such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air, breath analysis constituents, and indoor air pollutants requires calibration with accurate and reliable gas standards that mimic actual conditions. Humidity in various environments creates more challenges for accurate quantitative analysis and must be added to the calibration method.
KIN-TEK Analytical, Inc. provides products to create complex gas mixtures ranging from 2 or more different compounds in a single span gas stream. Each KIN-TEK permeation oven can hold up to 8 Trace Source™ disposable permeation tubes or 1 refillable permeation tube (depending on the application). Multiple oven permeation modules can be linked to increase the number of calibration gases desired.
KIN-TEK offers a Humidified Gas Module (HG Module) for creating %RH from ~20% to 90% RH (depending on the application) and can fulfill the need to calibrate in the same environment of real sampling.
