Frequently Asked Questions About GC Columns

1. What is the function of a GC column?

Gas chromatography (GC) columns are essential to gas chromatography as they are used in separating complex mixtures. It is a crucial tool used and applied in analytical chemistry as it is efficient, and effective. It is made up of a glass-like material called fused silica coated with a layer of stationary phase that interacts with the analytes as it goes through the column. This interaction results in the separation of the more volatile compounds from the less volatile ones.

2. What are the types of GC columns?

There are two types of gas chromatography (GC) columns - packed columns and capillary columns. Packed columns are short and thick columns made of stainless steel or glass. These GC columns have low separation performance and create broad, peaked shapes in the chromatogram. Packed columns are less susceptible to contamination and can handle larger sample volumes.

Capillary columns are currently the most common GC column type. These columns have superior separation performance and are ideal for highly sensitive separation and analysis. Capillary columns create sharper peaks resulting in higher sensitivity and lower detection limit.
