Abstract:
GC inlet liners can be nearly as important to good chromatography as column selection. Much attention is given to GC columns; their phase selectivity, so-called “Fast GC,” inert and low-bleed varieties. Columns are routinely the primary component discussed when reviewing method development. However, analysts often overlook the much needed, yet forgotten GC inlet liner. This talk will review the importance of GC liners and demonstrate how given the same GC instrument parameters and column, very different chromatographic responses can be achieved by using different liners. We will also explore inlet optimization parameters that are very important to consider while optimizing GC method.
