Measuring Moisture in Acetonitrile Using Gas Chromatography and the LUMA Vacuum Ultraviolet (VUV) Detector: Trace Levels and Beyond

The water content of organic solvents is one of the crucial properties that affect the quality of the products and the efficiency of the manufacturing processes. In many organic solvents, water is generally considered an impurity, and therefore its measurement in solvents is of importance for many industries and technologies. This is especially true, for...

Gas Chromatography with Vacuum Ultraviolet Detection for Pharmaceutical Analysis

LCGC

This Dedicated Dialogue interview with Jinjian Zheng of Merck, Inc. provides his perspective on the application of GC-VUV capabilities in pharmaceutical analysis. The adoption of GC-VUV in the pharmaceutical industry will grow as it is used for, "...development of methods for impurity profiling, stability indicating, and the analysis of complex reaction mixtures."

Better Living Through (Flavor) Chemistry Part 1 – We Don’t Need No Separation, We Don’t Need No Flow Control

Alex Hodgson, VUV Analytics

Alex describes how GC-VUV is able to differentiate terpene isomers, and why it's possible to speed up GC run times and increase sample throughput.
