Intura Hydrogen
The Intura Hydrogen is designed to provide the gas needed for detectors requiring hydrogen fuel gas, such as FID and FPD as well as collision gas for ICP-MS.
Designed to provide high-purity hydrogen for GC carrier and detector, as well as ICP-MS and hydrogenation applications. Intura Hydrogen is the safe and convenient alternative to cylinder gas supply.
Intura Hydrogen utilizes the latest Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) cell technology to separate deionizied water through electrolysis, alongside in-built water quality monitoring and pre- and post-filtration to ensure only the highest quality of hydrogen gas for your GC.
Reducing helium reliance with resilient GC gas supply strategies
This PEAK Scientific whitepaper explores how ongoing helium supply challenges are affecting analytical laboratories using GC and GC-MS workflows. It examines the factors behind recent and historical helium shortages, discusses alternative carrier gases such as hydrogen and nitrogen, and highlights how on-demand gas generation can help laboratories reduce helium dependency, improve supply resilience, and minimize reliance on cylinders.

7 Steps to changing carrier gas from helium to hydrogen
Hydrogen, nitrogen, and helium remain central to many laboratory workflows, each offering distinct advantages depending on the application. As laboratories look to reduce reliance on helium, hydrogen is attracting growing interest as a way to support efficient GC analysis, while also requiring careful consideration of gas supply, system compatibility, and safety. This guide from PEAK Scientific explores the practical factors involved in switching from helium to hydrogen and highlights Intura Hydrogen as a safe, convenient source of high-purity gas for carrier and detector applications in routine laboratory settings.
Future-proof your GC lab by switching from helium to hydrogen
Tuesday, September 29 at 16:00 BST | 17:00 CEST | 11:00 EDT | 08:00 PDT
Helium supply challenges and rising operational costs are leading more laboratories to explore hydrogen as an alternative carrier gas for gas chromatography. Making the switch successfully, however, depends on understanding how hydrogen affects methods, safety, instrument compatibility, and day-to-day laboratory practice.
In this SelectScience® webinar, Dr. Ed Connor, Product Manager at PEAK Scientific, and Tony Taylor, Technical Director at Crawford Scientific, will share practical guidance for transitioning from helium to hydrogen with confidence. Drawing on expertise in GC, GC-MS, chromatography education, and method development, the speakers will address common concerns around hydrogen carrier gas and explain how on-demand hydrogen generation can support more resilient and cost-effective GC workflows.
