Product news
Separation of compounds in complex samples using a single GC column can be challenging, especially if those compounds cover a wide polarity range. The patented GERSTEL Selectable 1D/2D-GC/MS System performs routine single dimensional GC/MS analysis and, with the click of a mouse, can be switched to perform two-dimensional separation when needed for more complex matrices.
Interesting sections of the chromatogram can be collected and concentrated from multiple runs to isolate trace compounds, for example for trouble shooting when off-odors are detected in a product. All this is performed using just one GC/MS system under integrated software control using the Gerstel MAESTRO software.

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors.

Often used in drug detection, forensic investigation and environmental analysis for pesticides and contaminants, GC-MS is a powerful addition to your lab’s analytical capabilities. GC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzers can give greater sensitivity and resolution to your analysis.
