This in-depth five day course will provide you with everything you need to know about GC and GC-MS to enable you to understand your instrument, develop better applications, troubleshoot and carry out essential maintenance. This course can be attended as individual day modules.
Who should take this course?
The Complete GC & GC-MS course is for those who have a basic knowledge of gas chromatography and would like to greatly enhance it by learning the practical theory behind a wide range of GC & GC-MS techniques.For complete beginners it is advisable to first attend the one day Absolute Basics of GC & GC-MS course. What does it cover? This course covers everything you need to know about GC and GC-MS and the related techniques including;
• Gases and plumbing
• Sample introduction techniques
• GC columns
• GC detectors
• Data analysis
• Headspace
• Solid Phase Micro Extraction (SPME)
• Pyrolysis
• Thermal desorption
• Purge & trap
• Liquid-liquidextraction
• Solid-phase extraction
Delegates will discover how to choose GC and GC-MS techniques for specific applications, how to set-up the instrument, how to develop & optimise GC and GC-MS methods and how to maintain & troubleshoot the instrument along with techniques and methods. This course also takes a brief look at advanced techniques that can be used to help solve those very tricky applications including selective discrimination, deconvolution, two-dimensional GC (GC+GC &GCxGC) and chemometrics.
This course isapproved by the Royal Society of Chemistry for purposes of Continuing Professional Development (CPD). Available as an in-house or off-site course. Contact us for details Tel: 0118 930 3660 Email: seminars@hichrom.co.uk
