This course is taught live in a virtual classroom through interactive, instructor-led training with instrument parts and consumables shown and explained. Small group sizes with plenty of opportunities to ask questions through live Q&A.
The course provides an introduction to gas chromatography and an overview of the analytes and samples analysed using the technique, looking at the basics of separation, providing an overview of the GC system and the chromatogram.
The course covers gases and plumbing in gas chromatography and looks in detail at the types of carrier gases, detector gases and cooling gases used. The course then looks at the gas supply; how gases are plumbed into the GC; the reasons to use gas purifiers and the types available; and how the gas flow and pressure is controlled.
The course goes on to cover the various sample introduction techniques in detail, including their theory, parameters and applications. Different injection techniques are looked at such as split, splitless, on-column, and types of large volume injection techniques.
This course combines modules 1, 2 and 3 of the Virtual Classroom Training: Practical Essentials of GC & GC-MS (total 18 hours over 5 days) and the Virtual Classroom Training: Complete GC & GC-MS (total 30 hours over 9 days).
Includes: electronic copy of the training manual; certificate of attendance.
Additional infoThis course is for those who have limited knowledge of gas chromatography and would like to learn more about these particular sections of the instrument.
