GCxGC/TOF-MS and GC-TOF-MS Comparisons To Be Made at Science and Industry Museum

Author(s)LCGC Staff

As part of an upcoming meeting on Recent Advances in Gas Chromatography meeting, led by Tony Taylor and Dan Carrier, one of the many talks planned will focus on the differences between two similar gas chromatography techniques, in hopes of seeing when either case is more suited for certain scenarios.

The talk, "Aroma and Fragrance Analysis: In Which Cases is GCXGC/ TOF-MS Overshadowing GC-TOF-MS for Firm and Hard Conclusions", will be led by Tatiana Cucu of RIC, located in Kortrik, Belgium. Its subject will appeal to experienced and new chromatographers alike, broadening their knowledge and helping them look at these techniques in new ways.

Figure 2. Split injection used to measure triplicate test of MTBE, hexane, o-xylene, and 1-methylnaphthalene comparing different solvents (methanol, methylene chloride) and column insertion distances starting with 0.5 mm, 5.0 mm, 10.0 mm, 15 mm, and 20.0 mm. Methanol had the best performance at the 5.0 mm insertion distance and methylene chloride looked slightly better at the 0.5 mm. We would still recommend not going below the 5.0 mm manufacturer recommended insertion distance.
