Advances in Gas Chromatography for Challenging Separation in Environmental and Food Industry

Modern regulations emphasize analytical methods capable of separating critical analyte pairs, for identification as well as quantitation. In order to meet separation goals and to exceed regulatory requirements, new and unique gas chromatography (GC) column selectivities are now essential. In this presentation, we will explore advances in GC column selectivity and method development tips that help provide solutions to challenging chromatographic problems. A variety of important and popular analytical methods across environmental and food testing will be explored, such as:

Environmental Applications:

• A fast, single column separation of Dioxins and substituted furans on specially designed Dioxin Phase
• Fast analysis of PAH and PCBS using unique GC column selectivity
• Overcoming challenges in semivolatile organic compounds Analysis
• Purgeable Organic Compound analysis on a MS certified 624 Phase

Food Testing Applications:

• Fast fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) analysis
• Column Selectivity for Multiclass pesticide analysis
• Fast PAH and PCB separation in food
