Abstract:RationaleNitrogen mustards (NMs) are blistering chemical warfare agents. The ability to detect NMs in environmental samples is very important for obtaining forensic evidence. The most common analytical techniques for NM detection are gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, which detects NMs in their intact form but is disadvantaged by high limits of detection (LODs), and liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI‐MS/MS) of their hydrolysis products, which do not provide robust… Show more
