If you have a question, we can guarantee that you are not the first...nor the last person to ask the question. Sometimes the simplest of questions can have the most complex answers. A question about which liner to use can lead to a discussion on the benefits of glass wool versus glass frits. A question about how long a column should last may trigger a discussion about the importance of a leak free system, the maximum temperature limit, proper phase selection, and how an application may benefit from using backflush. There’s no such thing as an easy answer because the answer always "depends" on many different factors.
In this discussion, the presenters will address some of the most frequently asked questions about GC and GC/MS that they have received, which may seem like simple questions but have anything but simple answers as well as new questions. Please submit any questions that you would like to be considered in advance by submitting them when completing the registration form in the link below.
By attending this event you will learn about:
- Best practices with GC and GC/MS systems – from liner and column selection to why gas filters matter and instrument prep recommendations, and why there is not always an easy answer to most GC(MS) questions.
- Why different consumables are used for different applications and listen to Agilent Scientists discuss the complexities of the most frequently asked questions they receive.
- The novel HydroInert source, which is designed for GC/MS and GC/MS/MS analysis with hydrogen carrier gas.
PLUS - Participation Bonus: Attend the webinar to receive a special offer from Agilent.
