Abstract:
There are many GC detector choices available to the chromatographer and the application. Selecting the optimum detector is critical to the success of an analysis and the requirements needed for reporting. In this presentation, the following relevant and necessary parameters for consideration when choosing an optimum detector will be reviewed, as follows:
- Universal or selective or both
- Dynamic range
- Detection limits
- Unknowns or knowns
- Compound identity needs to be confirmed
- Ease of use and cost of ownership
- Cost
This will be a helpful lesson on the thought process and considerations one should take when considering the optimum detector to use.
