<p><strong>V roce 2025 jsme realizovali úplně první instalaci </strong><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gcms.cz/products/7"><strong>GC Agilent 990 Micro</strong></a><strong>. Nový plynový chromatograf na Oddělení environmentální chemie a Oddělení aplikované biologie Ústavu pro nanomateriály, pokročilé technologie a inovace (TUL) umožňuje detailně sledovat metabolismus vodíku u podzemních mikroorganismů a přesně kvantifikovat relevantní plyny, včetně primárních složek i jejich metabolitů.&nbsp;</strong></p><p>Detailní analýza permanentních plynů umožňuje zachytit dynamiku mikrobiálních procesů a zkoumat, za jakých podmínek a jak rychle dochází ke spotřebě vodíku. Díky <strong>vysoké citlivosti (jednotky ppm</strong>), možnosti měření na dvou kanálech s různými kolonami a různými nosnými plyny v jednom nástřiku a rychlosti analýzy chromatografu Agilent 990 (3minutové intervaly), získává pracoviště unikátní data pro modelování mikrobiálních interakcí. Výzkum je zásadní pro návrh bezpečných a efektivních řešení podzemního skladování vodíku.</p><p><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Altium_International_Instalace_Agilent_990_Micro_na_Technicke_univerzite_v_Liberci_665294d009.jpg" alt="Altium International: Instalace Agilent 990 Micro na Technické univerzitě v Liberci" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_Altium_International_Instalace_Agilent_990_Micro_na_Technicke_univerzite_v_Liberci_665294d009.jpg 245w," sizes="100vw" width="605" height="340"></p><p>V laboratoři si cení <strong>prostorové, energetické a provozní úspory GC Agilent 990 Micro</strong> oproti klasickým stolním chromatografům.

Micro GC je už v základní konstrukci z inertních materiálů a snese tak separace korozivních plynů jako jsou H<sub>2</sub>S nebo NH<sub>3</sub>.

<p><strong>Obavy z nástřiku vody do GC systému pramení převážně ze starších konstrukcí kolon, u nichž byly stacionární fáze pouze nanesené a mohly být ovlivněny působením vody. Moderní kapilární kolony mají stacionární fáze obvykle chemicky vázané, což zvyšuje jejich odolnost vůči nástřikům vody a v mnoha případech dokonce umožňuje i proplachování vodou.</strong></p><p>Jednou z praktických výjimek jsou <strong>velmi polární fáze na bázi polyethylenglykolu</strong> (PEG / „wax“). Protože tyto fáze silně interagují s vodou, může opakované dávkování vodných vzorků vést k akumulaci vody a postupné změně selektivity. U mnoha PEG kolon pomáhá omezení častých nástřiků vodných vzorků udržet stabilní chromatografické vlastnosti.</p><p>Samostatným – a často důležitějším – problémem je velmi<strong> velká expanze vodní páry v horkém injektoru</strong>. Pokud objem expandovaných par překročí kapacitu lineru, může dojít k backflashi, při němž se páry vzorku dostanou do chladnějších, nevytápěných částí systému a zvýší se riziko carry-overu. Použití menších nástřikových objemů pomáhá toto riziko snížit.</p><p>V pracovních postupech, kde je<strong> voda matricí vzorku</strong> (například při analýze těkavých látek), mohou analyty eluovat při relativně nízkých teplotách pece, zatímco voda a zbytky látek s vyšším bodem varu mohou v koloně přetrvávat. Pro obnovení výkonu kolony se proto běžně používá periodické vypalování (vysokoteplotní čisticí krok), zejména pokud voda zůstává ve stacionární fázi při nízkých teplotách.</p><p>Souhrnně lze říci, že největší obavy z nástřiku vody vycházejí hlavně ze zkušeností se staršími potahovanými kolonami. U chemicky vázaných stacionárních fází bývají hlavními faktory expanze par a backflash v injektoru, zadržování vody na velmi polárních fázích a běžné údržbové postupy, jako je vypalování.</p><blockquote><h3><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gcms.cz/products/1571"><span>Phenomenex Zebron ZB-WAXplus GC kolony</span></a></h3><ul><li>100% odolné vůči vodě, ideální pro vodné vzorky; chemicky vázaná stacionární fáze umožňující proplachování rozpouštědly</li><li>Extrémně inertní vůči kyselým sloučeninám</li><li>Zvýšená selektivita pro nízkovroucí rozpouštědla; vysoká retence alkoholů a chlorovaných rozpouštědel</li><li>Vyšší chromatografická účinnost při 20 °C</li></ul></blockquote>

<p><strong>Spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS), provides a powerful and non-destructive approach for identifying materials without opening packages or containers. However, measurement success depends strongly on sample characteristics, container materials, and testing conditions. This webinar presents an experience-based overview of what SORS-enabled Raman spectroscopy can and cannot reliably measure using the Agilent Vaya Raman spectrometer as a representative platform. We will discuss classes of materials that are Raman-inactive or weak, samples prone to fluorescence or low signal, and common container materials that interfere with or block Raman measurements. Practical guidance will be provided on container thickness, color, and composition, as well as when black shielding or ambient light control is required. The session will help users quickly assess feasibility, set realistic expectations, and determine when Raman—or an alternative technique such as FTIR—is the appropriate analytical choice.</strong></p><blockquote><p><strong>Presenter: </strong>Yanqia Wang, PhD (Application Engineer, Molecular Spectroscopy, Agilent Technologies, Inc.)</p><p>Dr. Yanqia Wang started working for Agilent Technologies Inc. as a FTIR application Engineer in 2013, providing pre-&amp;post-sale application support.
