HTC-12 & HTSP-2
HTC-12 (Hyphenated Techniques for Chromatography) and HTSP-2 (Hyphenated Techniques for Sample Preparation) cover all fundamental aspects, instrumental developments and applications of hyphenated chromatographic techniques. These include hyphenation between chromatography and detection systems (with focus on MS), multi-dimensional chromatography, and the coupling between sample-preparation techniques and chromatographic systems.
Many aspects of chromatography are addressed, including automation and robotization, miniaturization and microfabricated analytical devices, high-pressure and high-temperature LC, as well as new detection techniques.
You are cordially invited to the GERSTEL vendor seminar at HTC-12.
GERSTEL Seminar
Wednesday, February 1
15:50 - 16:35
Ambassadeur Theatre (HTC-12)
Topics:
Automated pyrolysis for GC, as an option for Thermal Desorption.
An automated pyrolysis system for gas chromatography (GC) combined with a thermal desorption instrument with autosampler is described. The use of different types of sample holders for pyrolysis of solid and liquid samples is discussed for different applications. A special design has been developed that helps reduce the formation of secondary pyrolysis products.
Applications of Automated Sample Prep Concepts -"From Extraction through Clean-up to Injection"
One of the most time consuming steps in chromatographic analysis is sample preparation. Nowadays a range of instrumentation is available to automate sample preparation steps. Complex hyphenated analysis is possible by combining several modules on the GERSTEL Multi Purpose Sampler (MPS). In this lecture the focus is on two application examples: THC determination in serum using SPE and evaporative concentration; and doping analysis from horse urine using dispersive SPE.
Recent developments in SBSE: Experience with new phases.
This paper describes a novel ethylene glycol- (EG) and silicone based combined sorbent phase developed for stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) using the GERSTEL Twister™. EG-Silicone, polyacrylate (PA), and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) Twisters were used separately to perform SBSE on whisky, white wine and multivitamin juice in order to determine the usefulness of these phases for generating qualitative flavor profiles of beverages.
Come to the GERSTEL seminar and discover how to hyphenate your sample preparation!
