Your essential guide to gas chromatography (GC) sample introduction

Module 3 of the Complete GC & GC-MS and the Practical Essentials of GC & GC-MS course.

Practical Essentials of GC sample introduction module is approved by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) for the purposes of Continuing Professional Development (CPD). Take an in-depth approach to several types of sample introduction techniques for GC, covering the theory, parameters and applications. This GC training is designed for professionals, students and chemists who want a full overview of GC sample introduction for use in their laboratories.

This module can be combined with any of the other twelve modules in the Complete GC and GC-MS to tailor your training needs

Why should I join?

On completion of this module 3 training, you will have a solid understanding and overview of importance of sample introduction for GC, giving you:

  • A view of several GC inlet components such as septas and liners
  • Clear explanations of how to choose the right liner for analysis
  • Understanding of considerations required for the carrier gas
  • Knowledge of the differences between various injection types
  • Cover what parameters are required for the various injection types for GC
  • A great refresher on GC sample introduction if you have not performed GC for a while
Combine other days or modules.

What would I learn?

This module focuses on explaining the importance of sample introduction when it comes to using GC for analysis, you will learn:

  • Various GC injection types including split/splitless and on column, as well as their technique and principles
  • What injection temperature (hot or cold) is required for the different inlet types
  • How gaseous samples can be introduced into the GC system
  • Pros and cons of the various injection methods for GC
  • When and in what scenarios different injection techniques can be used

What knowledge will I gain?

By the end of the module, you will:

  • Understand the principles and parameters of split and splitless injection
  • Know the methods of large volume injection (LVI) including solvent elimination and rapid LVI
  • Confidently compare the various methods of LVI and what analytes each type may be suited for
  • Know the differences between the various gas sampling valves including rotary and slider valves
  • Comprehend the parameters surrounding the various methods of LVI and how sample volume can vary
  • Learn the importance of ferrule selection and how the various types are used in GC such as PTFE and metal ferrules
  • Be familiar with the recommended set-up for GC with regards sample introduction

Is this course for me?

This course is designed for anyone who would like to learn about sample introduction for GC.

  • Laboratory analysts & technicians using GC and GC-MS
  • Laboratory or line managers overseeing GC and GC-MS instruments and analysis
  • Data analysts and report writers who work with GC and GC-MS
  • Service engineers who want chemistry focused introduction to GC and GC-MS
  • Sales, commercial or marketing teams who work with GC and GC-MS components, instruments, or services in anyway and would like more in-depth knowledge

If GC and GC-MS touches your work in any way, this well-planned course delivered by experts in the field equips you to understand the science behind these techniques.
