Differentiation and Determination of Fatty Acid Methyl Esters by Gas Chromatography – Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectroscopy
Article Preview
GC-VUV was applied to the separation and analysis of several Fatty Acid Methyl Esters mixtures to provide classification of saturated and unsaturated FAMEs using their distinct spectral characteristics.
In his latest blog, Alex describes the importance of terpenes to cannabis and how GC-VUV simplifies cannabis terpene analysis. Fast GC run times of 12 minutes result from the method described.
Jonathan discusses how GC-VUV simplifies fatty acid methyl ester GC analysis through deconvolving co-eluting peaks, resolving cis- and trans-isomers, and differentiating levels of FAMEs unsaturation.
