Chromatographs

Labec’s gas and liquid chromatographs separate mixtures into their components. Our laboratory gas chromatograph is used in analytical chemistry to separate and analyse compounds which can be vaporised without decomposition. Our liquid chromatograph dissolves the mixture in a liquid, causing the components to separate, and its chromatograph data processing software simplifies the rest of the process.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is a chromatograph?

A chromatograph is an analytical instrument used to separate and analyse components in a mixture. It works by passing the mixture through a medium that interacts differently with the various components, allowing for their separation and identification.

What are the main types of chromatographs?

The main types of chromatographs include gas chromatographs and liquid chromatographs. Each type is tailored for specific applications based on the physical state of the samples being analysed.

What is a gas chromatograph used for?

Gas chromatographs are primarily used for analysing volatile compounds in gaseous or liquid samples. They are widely employed in environmental monitoring, quality control, and forensic analysis

What is a liquid chromatographs used for?

Liquid chromatographs are used to separate and analyse liquid samples, making them ideal for pharmaceuticals, food safety testing, and biochemical research. They are effective for compounds that do not vaporise easily.
