Can you effectively diagnose a problem with your GC just by looking at your chromatogram? 

These two sessions will provide a very useful overview of the diagnosis of GC peak shape problems that can result from a variety of sources.  Insight will be presented into the treatment of the actual cause of the GC problem as opposed to treating the symptoms.  A myriad of peak shape problems will be discussed with effective and logical approaches to correct the issues and to preventatively avoid them in the future.

These sessions will focus on the evidence of unrest in the world of GC analysis when efficient peak shapes degrade. Effective treatments of the causes will be presented together with tips on preventative measures that can be employed.

The following peak based problems will be addressed:

• peak broadening

• front peak tailing

• peak back tailing

• solvent peak tailing

• ghost peaks

• irregular peaks

• no peaks

• unresolved peaks 

• carryover peaks

• contamination peaks

The instructor for these audio seminars is Joseph M. Levy, PhD.   He has over 27 years as a practicing gas chromatographer, analytical chemist and trainer, and has lectured all over the world with training seminars, workshops and invited presentations.
