Abstract:
Gas Chromatography (GC) sample introduction techniques such as headspace (HS) and automated thermal desorption (ATD) are very easy useful tools for the investigation of compounds in many matrices and products whether the requirement is product quality or toxic compound investigation. There are several benefits using HS and ATD to attain information. They are less labor intensive providing enhanced productivity; they optimize sensitivity because they automate concentration; and they require little to no solvents rendering them environmentally friendly. This presentation is a learning experience which will introduce the theory, functionality and methods of these technologies. Several applications will be discussed to enhance the method development experience.
