Overwhelmed with Too Many GC Column Options? Let Us Help

There are many column choices for GC and GC/MS, but which one is right for your method? Choosing the correct column type is paramount in being successful with your analysis. Understanding the stationary phase chemistry and the role it plays in column selectivity, as well as the dimensions of the capillary column itself, will result in a more robust and efficient analysis.

This talk will discuss how the various stationary phases influence selectivity, as well as how column dimensions affect peak behavior and resolution.

Join us as we match you with the right column for your analysis!
