Hi everyone. I have a problem with my 8890 GC-MS as I do not have pressure in the inlet. The issue began during the IT outage, the EPC module turned off itself hence all heated zones turned off as well. When I managed to re-establish the connection I…
Hi ISH, yes all was fine with column installation and pump down was efficient. The issue seems to be with the entrance lense offset - I loaded a previous tune and managed to run an autotune however it is failing due to too high 503/502 ratio. I've seen…
Hello everyone,
We have a problem with the acquisition methods on GC, but not on HPLC.
When we want to change an acquisition method that is in "approved" status to "generic" status in order to modify it, it is impossible to do so because the box is…
I have decades of experience with consumer products, all on Agilent GC, GCMS, and HPLC.
If I was needing to quantitate 1,2-octanediol in cosmetics samples, I'd extract the sample with dimethylformamide and add BSTFA to make trimethylsilyl derivative…
HI Lars,
Yes, you can run the test on a VI. Specific to your system, a failing result could indicate a leak within the inlet or at any of the in-line connections of your GSV, so the results may not be clear without a point leak detector. I would also…
l have lc 1260 pump type G1311c and it is in residual mode due to installing a degasser board on the pump board. I used the Lab Advisor program to update the firmware, but the process was not successful and messages appeared. Connection failed instrument…
No, the flows on the two columns downstream of the switch have to be equal. They are feed by the same pressure source, so since MSD is under vacuum and the FID is ambient, the column connected to the MSD has to have more restriction, to keep the flows…
Hello all,
I made a custom excel report template for GC-MS/FID data I'm working with in MassHunter B.10 and I'm having an issue getting the template to report the user selected "best" from the spectrum ID results list.
Here is how I've added the table…
