Restek Corporation: Choosing a Different Carrier Gas in GC and Why are Liners Deactivated
Choosing a different carrier gas in GC: Hydrogen or Nitrogen?
Rising costs and supply concerns are pushing labs to explore alternatives to helium. This webinar covers the key considerations when switching to hydrogen or nitrogen — including on-site generation, separation performance, and practical tips for a smooth transition.
Why do GC liners need to be deactivated?
From injection technique to matrix complexity, liner selection directly impacts chromatographic performance. This webinar explores modern deactivation technologies, testing protocols, and best practices to maximize inertness and extend liner lifetime.
Key learnings:
- Evaluate when and how to switch from helium to nitrogen or hydrogen
- Understand key criteria for selecting the right GC liner
- Learn how advanced deactivation improves performance and liner lifetime
