Get Your Peaks into Shape: General GC Column Troubleshooting
We probably have all experienced this at some point when performing gas chromatography and our peak shape begins to appear a bit different.
Often the best way to approach troubleshooting is to also consider what ‘cannot’ cause an issue so that precious time is not spent addressing something that cannot cause the issue. This webinar will arm you with some simple tools, and a different way to look at troubleshooting, should a problem arise.
