Ask-the-experts on effective GC solutions to deal with the helium shortage

Welcome to Thermo Fisher Scientific’s Powering Productivity in Food and Environmental Testing webinar series!

The global helium shortage continues to have a profound impact on the productivity of analytical testing labs that rely on helium as a carrier gas for their GC analyses.

In this webinar, hosted by Petra Gerhards, GC&GC-MS experts Daniela Cavagnino and Adam Ladak will discuss the recurring shortage, the effect it is having on gas chromatography users, and solutions that Thermo Fisher Scientific can provide to help reduce the burden of increased cost and supply uncertainty in routine testing labs. The solutions covered include technologies for saving helium, as well as using hydrogen instead of helium- including data that validates the workflow for hydrogen usage.
