Enthalpy and Boiling Points in Capillary Column Gas Chromatography.

Column switching analysis with packed-capillary columns in gas chromatography.

By introducing sequentially connected two packed-capillary columns, a wide range of volatile compounds were successfully separated in gas chromatography. The hyphenation of two packed-capillary columns of 1.0 mm i.d. was accomplished using a conventional 6-port valve, where the temperature of each column was individually controlled in the respective column ovens. These columns were prepared w...

Capillary Column Selectivity and Inertness for Sulfur Gas Analysis in Light Hydrocarbon Streams by Gas Chromatography

Rapid temperature-programmed separation and retention prediction on a novel packed-capillary column in gas chromatography.

Novel packed-capillary columns for gas chromatography were developed with a thin-wall stainless-steel capillary of 1.0 mm i.d.; and rapid temperature-programmed separations have been carried out after a basic evaluation concerning the compatibility of these columns to the temperature program. With a numerical integration method, the retention of several test analytes during temperature-programm...

Simultaneous determination of alcohols and ethylene glycol in serum by packed- or capillary-column gas chromatography.

We developed a packed-column chromatographic procedure capable of simultaneous quantitation of methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, acetone, and ethylene glycol. This method was then updated to a rapid, sensitive, wide-bore capillary method. The packed-column system uses direct injection of 1 microL of Na2WO4/H2SO4-deproteinized serum onto a 1.8 m x 2 mm (i.d.) column packed with 80/100 HayeSep R. A...

Development and evaluation of an instant column connector for capillary gas chromatography

Coupling capillary columns in gas chromatography (GC) is not an operation that is only relevant for the users of the most advanced capillary GC methods. Simple single-column separations can also benefit from a properly selected and installed pre-column. Pre-columns connected upstream of the main column can increase the life-time of the column, efficiently refocus the analyte bands to result in ...
