In gas chromatography (GC) analysis, the use of proper high-purity gases is critical to the speed and accuracy of analysis. Laboratories worldwide are taking control of their gas supply with onsite gas generation as a safe and economical way to stabilize gas costs while improving the speed of analysis. LCGC recently sat down with Rod Wilson, Product Manager of Parker Hannifin’s Analytical Gas Business, to discuss the advantages of Parker gas generators.

Tuesday, June 14th, 2022 at 2:00pm EDT|11am PDT|7pm BST|8pm CEST The stresses of helium shortages are back. What can you do to reduce the impact on your lab? Switching to hydrogen or nitrogen carrier gas for your gas chromatography operations can offer relief. Here’s what to consider.













***Live: Monday, April 26, 2021 at 11am EDT | 8am PDT | 4pm BST | 5pm CEST*** Prevention is better than cure, the essential guide to how to care for your GC instrument and column.*** On demand available after final airing until May 26, 2021.***

Historically, helium has been used as a makeup or carrier gas. Learn about the disadvantages of helium and why so many laboratories are switching to nitrogen gas for GC.








Hydrogen is great choice of carrier gas for GC when analyzing of low-level PAHs by GC/MS. On-demand gas generation offers an analytically superior, cost-effective and safe solution over helium.
