I have a 6890N GC with dual FID. The back column has a much higher flow rate than the front column. The two columns are identical and the setup for inlet, column and detector are identical. I have also swapped the EPC's between the two detectors. Seems…
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…
Good morning,
We have an autosampler (Agilent G4567A) for our GC-FID (7820A) and the following method for cleaning and injecting samples.
I have noticed that when the syringe pumps 2µL of sample for cleaning, it then pumps quite a large volume of…
Wondering if anyone has experience detecting acetic acid and formic acid using GC-FID HSS. I am trying to develop a method based on the limits described in USP <467> of 5000 ug/mL of each of the two solvents, but having a hard time seeing any peaks.
Hi, I know this is an old thread, but I am having a very similar issue. I am wondering how did you know to replace the interconnect spring rod? How did you know this was the issue, and that it was not instead an issue with the FID board or the electrometer…
We don't know what is in your water samples, but on a CP-Wax 57 CB benzene and isopropanol are eluting very close to ethanol, just in front of it.
You can find examples of applications of alcoholic beverages on Wax 57 (all types) in Scanview ( (+) Software…
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,
I removed Heater/sensor assy from Back channel and put in front channel FID and again reconfigure FID.
Upto now, it's working.
Means Heater/sensor assy was faulty.
But still, one thing I am unable to understand that Fid block was heating earlier…
We have a baseline that gives a sinusoidal wave that starts about 16 minutes. We are using an Agilent 6850 GC with a split/splitless injector and an FID. The inlet is interfaced to a 7679A HS. The baseline is good up until 15.5 minutes then it starts…
