Highly Reproducible Detailed cis/trans FAMEs Analysis Ensured by New Optimized Rt-2560 Column Manufacturing and Application-Specific QC Test

Restek Corp.
12 Jul 2017

Restek has optimized the manufacturing process and implemented a new, application-specific, QC-testing procedure for all new Rt-2560 columns (cat.# 13198) in order to ensure consistent performance for detailed cis/trans FAMEs analysis. Restek’s Rt-2560 GC column is commonly used for detailed analysis of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) in foods; for the determination of trans fat content in foods and edible oils; and for profiling of fatty acids in edible oils. The column is well suited to this purpose as it contains a highly polar, nonbonded, biscyanopropyl polysiloxane stationary phase housed in a 100 m x 0.25 mm x 0.20 µm column format.

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. Find the best GC-MS instruments and equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Chromatography Method DevelopmentChromatography method development is the process of designing and optimizing chromatographic techniques to separate and analyze complex mixtures. This includes selecting appropriate stationary and mobile phases, determining flow rates, and optimizing detection methods. Successful method development is essential for high-quality results in fields like pharmaceuticals, food safety, and environmental analysis.
