hi community we are developing a method on short chain fatty acids in plasma sample, using a DB fatwax UI column on GC-FID. we are using diethyl ether as extraction solvent however our recovery of patient samples are not so good and looking to use Isoproponol…
I receive no error messages. There are other members of my lab that use FID on the same machine and one of the gas cylinders was replaced. But on the ECD track all the temperatures and pressures are maintained when I am injecting samples.
I am looking to set up in line sampling on a GC/FID (6850A, G2630A) with a capillary column. I have found sample valves listed for 6850 series GCs (e.g. G2668A), but the part description specifies it is for G2630B, so I take it that this is incompatible…
I'm guessing this is FID since you mention fuel gas - is that correct? Fuel gas impurities can cause some of this. Make sure the gases you are using are 99.9995% purity or higher. Filters and traps on the gas supply lines may help - are any currently…
H ztarbs,
The air would not be for an inlet supply. This is most likely a detector support gas for FID. Check your method to make sure that the FID is not on in a standby method. FID air consumption is 400 to 450ml/min when on.

We use Agilent NGA Analyzer GC based on 4 column configuration. Hayesep Q pre column, Hayesep Analytical column, molsieve column for TCD and one capillary column for FID. The H2S elution takes place in the Hayesep analytical column. But now a days our…
Hello, is it possible to operate a HP 5890 II with 7673 in standalone mode completely without computer/integrator?
I'm trying to set up a GC taken from a former GC-MS system working with a PC over GPIB. It should now work as GC-FID together with the…
Hi silencer2008,
the 1 µL/s rule means the injection speed used for splitless injections, which is very slow compared to split injection where you want to inject as fast as possible.
Two interesting articles would be:

Hello,
I have had a fair amount of success with posted questions in this forum, so here is another one. I am interested in knowing more about whether the flame ionization detector I have equipped on my HP/Agilent 6890 GC is the correct detector…
Hi guys, when I tried to run my sequence in GC-FID, the workstation showed "front injectors not detected", and under my method, the configuration showed no injectors. However, the parameters I entered for injection could be found in the GC (7890A) operation…
