Abstract:

Agilent Technologies recently released the 8890 gas chromatograph, along with a next-generation electronic pneumatic controller, called the pneumatic switching device (PSD) which originated on the Intuvo 9000 GC.  This talk will demonstrate the use of the PSD along with the Agilent capillary flow technology reversed-flow differential flow modulator with flame ionization detection to generate GCxGC chromatograms.  The performance of the current iteration of hardware will be assessed, along with showing applications that benefit from a GCxGC approach.
