GC is a common tool for quality control in pharmaceutical production, small molecule research in medical chemistry and drug discovery, metabolism research and other areas. The complexity of these applications demands special columns to conduct separation with a high degree of column inertness and low column bleed for advanced GC, HSGC, HS-GC-MSD and other instrumentation. Based both on our knowledge and expertise as well as that of our customers, GS-Tek makes the following recommendations for life sciences and pharmaceutical application column selection.
