The analysis method of 3-Monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) compound in water was developed using liquid chromatography with mass spectrometric detection. Aqueous solution was controlled in strong basic condition with sodium hydroxide, and then $25{\mu}L$ of benzoyl chloride was added to the solution for the derivatization of 3-MCPD. The derivative was extracted using pentane and analyzed by the selected ion monitoring (SIM) method of LC-MS. The results of analyses showed that the calibration curves was in the range of 1.0 to $100{\mu}g/mL$ with a good linearity (correlation coefficient of $r^2=0.992$) and limit of detection was below $0.01{\mu}g/mL$. The recoveries of this analysis method by LC-MS were 92.3-98.0 %.

The comparative analysis of glycerin in cosmetic samples was carried out by LC/MS and $^1H$ NMR spectrometry. For the LC/MS analysis, aqueous solution was controlled in strong basic condition with sodium hydroxide, and benzoyl chloride was added to the solution for the derivatization of glycerin. The derivative was extracted using pentane and analyzed by the LC/MS. For the $^1H$ NMR analysis, sample was directly dissolved in $D_2O$ solvent without pretreatment. The quantitative analysis of glycerin was done by $^1H$ NMR ERETIC method. The analysis results of LC/MS and $^1H$ NMR showed that the calibration curves were a good linearity with $r^2=0.9991$ in the range of 0.1 to $10{\mu}g/mL$ and $r^2=1$ in the range of 25 to $500{\mu}g/mL$, respectively.
