Coupling Ion chromatography to mass spectrometry - Automatic Calibration in Ion Chromatography: save time, gain reliability
Part 1 - Coupling Ion chromatography to mass spectrometry
Ion chromatography (IC) is routinely used for ion analysis, typically with non-specific detectors such as conductivity or UV/Vis. Interest in utilising IC with mass spectrometry (MS) detection has increased in recent years in order to reduce interference, improve sensitivity and increase confidence in compound identification. This webinar aims to explain the different approaches that can be used to couple IC to MS demonstrated with a range of possible applications. The advantages the combined techniques can offer are also highlighted.
Learning objectives.
- Highlight the different IC-MS approaches
- Possible IC-MS applications
- Benefits of coupling IC to MS
Part 2 - Automatic Calibration in Ion Chromatography: save time, gain reliability
Ion chromatography (IC) is a versatile and proven method for ion analysis. It allows the accurate and precise analysis of anions, cations, amines, organic acids, carbohydrates and amino acids in virtually any matrix. The big benefit of IC is that chemically similar substances are determined in parallel in a single analysis.
The results are reliable if they are in the calibrated range. In the past the calibrations were done manually, an error-prone and time-intensive step. Today automatic calibration techniques are available saving time and improving the precision and reliability of your analysis. The webinar explains about these techniques and shows capabilities to enlarge the measuring range for your sample series. Additionally tips and tricks for IC calibrations are given to make your routine work more convenient.
learning objectives:
- Benefits of automatic calibration in IC
- Possible application areas from trace level to the g/L range
- Capabilities and principles of the different techniques to realize automatic calibration, e.g., Inline Dilution, Partial-Loop Injection or Inline Preconcentration
- Handling of large concentration differences in sample series
- Tips and tricks for IC calibrations in routine work
Who should attend:
Everybody interested in ion chromatography who would like to know more about:
- More convenience in routine work by an automatic calibration
- Inline Sample Preparation Techniques, e.g. Inline Dilution or Inline Preconcentration
- Possibilities to save time and to improve reliability
