Thermo Fisher Scientific has announced the availability of intuitive gas chromatography (GC) column selection tools in its 2010-2011 Chromatography Columns and Consumables catalogue.
The 'GC Column Selection' pages provide a number of tools to aid in selecting the most appropriate product from the Traceo range of GC columns for existing or regulated methods.
The 'Thermo Scientific Trace Phase' selection table lists details for the array of phases offered in the Tracegoldo, Trace and Traceploto GC column ranges.
The 'GC Column Selection by Manufacturer' table provides a quick cross reference for Trace columns to GC columns from other manufacturers.
If an ASTM, NIOSH or US EPA method is being followed, then the 'Column Selection by Method' tables indicate the best Thermo Scientific product.
The GC Column Selection pages also offer hints and tips for method development selection in terms of column phase, internal diameter, film thickness and column length.
Meeting such requirements, the Thermo Scientific Trace range of GC Columns offers high temperature stability and exhibits low bleed and long lifetimes.
From general-purpose non-polar to polar columns, Tracegold, Trace and Traceplot columns are said to guarantee high quality, performance and reproducibility.
Offering 540 pages of chromatography tools, the catalogue offers a range of products and techniques to meet all needs, from sample preparation to separation and analysis, making it an ideal reference for laboratories utilising any form of chromatography.
