Course description

Method development in the modern GC laboratory is challenging but can be approached very logically and is hugely rewarding when a fit for purpose method is produced. This course provides you with the underpinning knowledge to begin your GC method development career. This course has been designed for those who are experienced in GC and who are now looking to develop their understanding of method development. During the course we will assume that you are familiar with the basic theories of gas phase chromatographic separations, but we will also revisit some theory to underpin the teaching. Logical and informed method development leads to high quality, reproducible and robust GC methods. This course considers the wide array of equipment and chemistry choices available to method developers in the modern analytical laboratory and teaches a refined and logical approach to method development.
