From Bottlenecks to Breakthroughs: Overcoming GC–MS Limitations in Non-Target Screening
Non-target screening of complex samples is often hampered by challenges such as co-elutions and trace-level analytes, leading to low-confidence identifications or entirely missed compounds. Traditional one-dimensional GC–MS struggles to meet the demands of intricate petrochemical, food, and biological analyses, resulting in errors, inefficiencies, and lost insights.
GC×GC–TOF MS overcomes these challenges with enhanced separation, reliable compound identification, and advanced data analysis tools. This webinar will demonstrate how GC×GC–TOF MS transforms non-target screening, with practical examples from sustainable fuel analysis, aroma profiling, and essential oil characterization.
By attending this presentation, you will:
- Discover the advantages of GC×GC and how it surpasses traditional GC in analysing complex samples.
- Explore the latest enhancements to BenchTOF2 mass spectrometers, designed to support confident trace-level identification, intuitive workflows, and reliable performance.
- Learn how intelligent data analysis tools can automatically identify key features that differentiate complex samples.
- Gain insights from real-world applications, including sustainable fuel analysis, food and beverage aroma profiling, and essential oil comparisons.
