• GCxGC Isn’t Just a Tool for Research

    When thinking about hydrocarbon analysis, it is natural to think of gas chromatography (GC). However, simple GC (single column) separation doesn’t always provide the complete answer. When full separation is impossible due to complexity of the mixture and functionality of a simple column system, other options can be considered. Read More »
