2-day Hands-on GCxGC Operator

15 March 2016 09:00 - 16 March 2016 17:00, Milton Keynes, United Kingdom


Introduction
Course accreditation

This course has been approved by the Å·ÃÀAV for purposes of Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

What will I learn on this course?

The 2-day Hands-on GCxGC Operator course is designed to introduce the fundamental concepts of GCxGC with flow and thermal modulation. It combines a mixture of classroom based presentations with hands-on hardware and some software lab exercises to give you comprehensive training. It will review the use of the Agilent CFT flow modulator and the Zoex and Leco thermal modulators.

This course focuses on the hardware rather than the software aspects of GCxGC. It includes an introduction to Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography; selection and installation of the column set into the modulator; creation of GCxGC methods; optimisation of a diesel sample using the standard column set; and the basic analysis of the data using Zoex GCImage software, provided by JSB, or the Leco ChromaToF software.
