Agilent Technologies Increases GC Productivity with Low Thermal Mass Rapid Heating/Cooling Option
Agilent Technologies Inc., (Palo Alto, California) announced a low thermal mass (LTM) system for rapid heating and cooling of its 7890A gas chromatograph (GC), which will greatly increase productivity by significantly reducing analytical cycle times.
Agilent Technologies Inc., (Palo Alto, California) announced a low thermal mass (LTM) system for rapid heating and cooling of its 7890A gas chromatograph (GC), which will greatly increase productivity by significantly reducing analytical cycle times. Agilent acquired this LTM technology with the purchase of RVM Scientific in June 2008. The patented design involves wrapping heating elements and temperature sensors directly around the GC column, enabling dramatically faster temperature cycles compared to standard oven-based configurations.
Altering Capillary Gas Chromatography Systems Using Silicon Pneumatic Microvalves
May 5th 2025Many multi-column gas chromatography systems use two-position multi-port switching valves, which can suffer from delays in valve switching. Shimadzu researchers aimed to create a new sampling and switching module for these systems.
New Study Reviews Chromatography Methods for Flavonoid Analysis
April 21st 2025Flavonoids are widely used metabolites that carry out various functions in different industries, such as food and cosmetics. Detecting, separating, and quantifying them in fruit species can be a complicated process.
