Studying the small has never been a bigger priority. The diversity of the metabolome requires a diversity of analytical tools to understand it, but no matrix is too complex when you’re properly equipped. Discover how GC-TOFMS and GCxGC can complete your instrument suite.

Using a mass spectrometer as a gas chromatography (GC) detector has many advantages for compound identification and quantification, but there is another less-known benefit: speeding up analyses by using the mass spectrometry (MS) vacuum to lower pressure within the column. This technique, also known as “vacuum‑outlet GC” or “low-pressure GC–MS” (LPGC–MS), can provide significant gains for fast GC–MS.
