The paper deals with possible applications of the connection of liquid chromatography with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) mass spectrometry (Agilent 1100 series LS-MSD system) and gas chromatography with electron capture detector (GC-ECD) in the analysis of some common available or improvised explosives. The analysis of selected types of individual explosives, 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), 1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazinane (TMTA) and analysis of their mixtures (TNT/TMTA and RDX/TMTA) in their post-explosion residues on the basis of generated characteristic mass spectra by using LC-MSD system is the aim of this work. Post-explosion analysis of TMTA and its explosive mixtures can be similarly complicated, like that of the well-known plastic explosive on the basis of pentaerythritol tetranitrate, Semtex-1A.
