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.
This course looks at the information that can be gained from a chromatogram and mass spectrum, looking at how to undertake data analysis and perform library searching. The reasons for performing the analysis are discussed including qualitative analysis, identification, quantitation and semi-quantitation.
The course then covers sampling techniques in detail with application examples, including how to select the best technique based on the sample phase and analyte volatility.
Techniques explained include: thermal extraction techniques including thermal desorption (TD) and pyrolysis (Py); VOC analysis including static & dynamic headspace (SHS & DHS) and purge & trap (P&T); solid-phase extraction techniques including solid-phase extraction (SPE), solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) and sorptive extraction techniques; liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) techniques; liquid autosamplers and derivatisation are also discussed.
This course combines modules 7 and 8 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).
This course is for those who have limited knowledge of gas chromatography and would like to learn more about this particular stage of sample analysis.
