Product news

MACHEREY-NAGEL presents the new GC column OPTIMA® 5 HT with temperature stability up to 400 ºC. The new polyimide cover and thermo-stable OPTIMA® 5 HT-silarylene phase offers many features compared to classical GC columns.

Features include a longer lifetime, even at extreme conditions, and quicker analysis/shorter retention times due to increased heating option. It is 100% MS compatible/ultra low bleed with excellent deactivation/reliable quantifications even for critical compounds.

Fields of application - the new OPTIMA® 5 HT is of interest for all GC/MS users who deal with very high boiling compounds for example, simulated distillation (SimDist), petrol chemical industry/fuel industry,
hospitals, medical research centers (e.g. steroids) and the manufacturer of cleaning reagents/detergents (e.g. triton).

Further GC application notes could be found in the brand-new Gas Chromatography Application Guide/Technical Handbook.

OPTIMA®5 HT is the alternative for DB-5HT, VF-5HT, HT-5, XTI-5HT, ZB-5HT and an improvement to conventional GC columns of 5 type polarity!

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors. Find the best gas chromatographs in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.GC-MS GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) instruments and equipment are used to separate, quantify and identify mixtures of small and volatile compounds, such as polycyclic aromatics, fatty acids and alcohols. Often used in drug detection, forensic investigation and environmental analysis for pesticides and contaminants, GC-MS is a powerful addition to your lab’s analytical capabilities. GC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzers can give greater sensitivity and resolution to your analysis.
