What is GC/principle/instrumentation/use/detectors

Question

Accepted Answer

GC stands for Gas Chromatography, a principle and instrumentation used for separating and analyzing volatile compounds.

GC is a technique used in analytical chemistry to separate and identify components of a mixture.
It involves injecting a sample into a gas chromatograph, which vaporizes the sample and carries it through a column.
The column contains a stationary phase that interacts with the sample components, causing them to separate based on their chemical properties.
Detectors are used to measure the separated components and generate a chromatogram.
Common detectors include flame ionization detector (FID), thermal conductivity detector (TCD), and mass spectrometer (MS).
GC is widely used in various industries such as pharmaceuticals, environmental analysis, food and beverage, and forensic science.
