Results for tag: "Gas Chromatograph"

Gas Chromatograph (GC) is a type of laboratory equipment used to separate and analyze volatile compounds. It is used in a wide range of industries, including pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, petrochemicals, and environmental testing. GCs are used to identify and quantify compounds in a sample, as well as to determine the purity of a sample. The process involves passing a sample through a column filled with a stationary phase, such as a liquid or solid, and a mobile phase, such as a gas. The sample is then separated into its components, which are then detected and quantified. GCs are available in a variety of configurations, including benchtop, portable, and online systems. Benchtop systems are typically used in laboratories, while portable systems are used in the field. Online systems are used for continuous monitoring of samples. The GC market is highly competitive, with a number of companies offering a wide range of products. Some of the major players in the market include Agilent Technologies, Shimadzu Corporation, Thermo Fisher Scientific, PerkinElmer, and Waters Corporation. Show Less Read more
