Alex Hodgsen’s webcast demonstrates the isomer differentiation and high throughput capabilities of GC–VUV through the analysis monoand sesquiterpenes in a variety of samples, including essential oils, gins, hops, and cannabis. GC runs that traditionally took approximately 30 minutes were compressed to sub 9-minute run times by harnessing the unique capabilities inherent to GC–VUV.
