A guide to selecting a GC system and peripherals for your lab.
Solid phase extraction (SPE) is usually performed with disks or cartridges. Horizon Technology provides two types of extractors to help in automating the process for better precision. This allows each laboratory to choose the system that is most appropriate for their samples and workload.
Finding the right column for your application can be tough. We aim to make that process a little easier with this year's guide.
Many factors in materials impact foods and beverages. These range from safety issues, such as microbiological contamination, to texture issues, such as the smoothness of peanut butter.
