This course offers no-nonsense, results-oriented training that will help you improve your bottom-line performance. Come prepared to discuss your analytical problems and challenges with expert chromatographers. By enrolling in this course, you will learn to master state-of-the-art techniques and equipment in GC with practical, hands-on experience. In the course's five hands-on laboratory sessions, you will work on a variety of experiments, and in the process, become familiar with GC equipment by taking apart and reassembling working GCs. You will be able to experiment with new ideas, like fast-GC or splitless injection.
