Learning outcomes:
- You will learn about how to use eight independent sample preparation techniques for GC-MS and LC-MS in great detail
- You will learn the fundamental theory of Liquid-Liquid Extraction (LLE), Derivatisation, Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE), Solid-Phase Micro-Extraction (SPME), Headspace (HS), Purge-and-Trap (P&T), Thermal Desorption (TD) and Pyrolysis (Py)
- You will learn about the types of samples that can be analysed
- You will learn about the various parameters that can be optimised for each technique to improve method robustness and sensitivity
- You will learn about the individual steps and processes of each technique
- You will learn the frequent maintenance and common troubleshooting problems for each technique
- You will learn the tips and tricks of each technique
- You will learn about the benefits of each technique for the analysis of your samples
Who is this course for?
If you have reasonable gas chromatography experience but want further hands-on training on a new sampling technique, then this is the course is for you. Delegates should have good knowledge of GC or GC-MS or LC or LC-MS or have attended the Practical Essentials of GC & GC-MS or the Hands-on GC & GC-MS courses or the Practical Essentials of LC & LC-MS or the Complete HPLC & LC-MS courses.Course combinations:
You can attend all 8 modules of the course for a complete training solution covering the practical theory of these 8 sample preparation techniques. Alternatively, you can attend individual courses for specific training on each technique:- Practical Essentials of Liquid-Liquid Extraction (LLE)
- Practical Essentials of Derivatisation
- Practical Essentials of Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE)
- Practical Essentials of Solid-Phase Micro-Extraction (SPME)
- Practical Essentials of Headspace (HS)
- Practical Essentials of Purge-and-Trap (P&T)
- Practical Essentials of Thermal Desorption (TD)
- Practical Essentials of Pyrolysis (Py)
