Navigating Troubled Waters: A Deep Dive into Water Injections by GC

Injecting water into your GC may be convenient, especially if you are working with compounds that have limited solubility in organic solvents or with water samples. However, there are many potential problems with water, including injector and detector issues.

Join us as we take a dive deep and explore water injections and not only how to perform them correctly, but also the many pointers to keep in mind when working with water.
