HydroInert Source for Hydrogen Carrier Gas on GC/MS

Hydrogen as a carrier gas in GC/MS is a low-cost, renewable gas suitable for several GC/MS applications.Hydrogen carried gas is commonly used as an alternative option to helium.Helium is a finite resource and this, alongside inefficient production, makes it expensive.The high price and recurring shortages have increased demand for applications using a hydrogen carrier gas.

必威体育登录手机The Agilent HydroInert Source is a GC/MS ion source that improves chromatographic performance when using hydrogen as carrier gas in GC/MS.It helps to avoid loss of sensitivity and spectral anomalies, while offering a high-boiler peak shape.必威体育登录手机The Agilent HydroInert source reduces the need for GC/MS ion source cleaning, decreasing system downtime and maintenance and resulting in fewer interruptions to data generation.

Chromatographic-quality stainless steel tubing and fittings are often recommended for hydrogen plumbing.必威体育登录手机Agilent offers a stainless steel install kit (19199S) to help prevent serious contamination problems.

Users can continue to use existing He-based mass spectral libraries and quantitative methods.
