Event Overview:

Gas Chromatography is a proven technique for the analysis of semivolatiles and volatile compounds. Recent changes in regulations, including a chlorinated solvent ban, method consolidation, and reduced volume extraction for semivolatiles has led to a need for a GC solution that can meet and exceed the detection requirements. This presentation will address the challenges in semivolatiles analysis like EPA 8270 triple and single quad methods by utilizing the latest innovation in gas chromatography. Unique benefits of novel formats and real-world sample analysis will be explored to unleash your confidence with advanced GC solutions for next-generation chromatographers.

Key Learning Objectives:

• Learn that advanced GC column technology can help reach and exceed regulatory requirements even for the most challenging analytes.
• Understand how to reach trace-level sensitivity (lower ppbs) for a wide variety of analytes, including acidic basic and neutral analytes.
• Identify the current challenges with semivolatiles analysis and how to overcome those challenges.
• See how choosing unique and optimal GC column format can improve lab throughput and efficiency.

Who Should Attend:

• Method developers interested in reaching ppb level sensitivity with GC-MS/MS
• Laboratories interested in improving peak shape, detection, and extending calibrations
• Lab Managers and Directors looking to meet and exceed regulatory requirements
• GC-MS & MS/MS users looking for method optimization guidance
