Abstract
Previous work has clearly shown that metastable transfer emission spectrometry has useful applications as a general detector for hydrocarbon gas chromatography and as a detector for organometallic compounds. We report here additional progress in determining the characteristics of the system response to HCl catalyzed chemiluminescence from saturated hydrocarbons and to oxygen-containing compounds. The implications in terms of a multipurpose general and selective detector for chromatography are discussed.
