Title: Comparison of laser excited fluorescence and photoacoustic limits of detection for static and flow cells

The fluorescence and photoacoustic characteristics of a windowless flow cell intended for liquid chromatographic applications are compared with respective characteristics of a static cuvette cell. In addition, a photoionization mode of operation for the flow cell is exhibited which utilizes the ionization products of two-photon excitation of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons in n-alkanes to effect a sensitive detection of those PAHs.
