Analytical Instruments Testing Series-Training on GC-MS/MSD

Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry is one of the most sophisticated instruments that is used for identifying the volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds in a complex mixture quantitatively. Spectro provides a full knowledge about this instrument, its theory and method for using their accessories by organizing such training programs. GC-MS provides significant and reliable results and it has become the tool for tracking organic pollutants in our environment

Aim of the Program:

The program is best suited for the beginners and early users of GC-MS and the analysts which are seeking a first formal course. We offer hands-on practice on GC-MS/MS Triple Quad (Agilent-GC 7890A and MS 7000), GC with FID and TCD (Nucon 5700), GC-MSD (Agilent-GC 7820 AGC and MSD 5977E), GC-MS/MS (Thermo Finnigan, PolarisQ), and GC with FID and TCD (East & West 4000 A, EGC-4002A). The training is conducted in accordance with the specified procedures and fundamental principles of GC. The Theory of Single/Triple Quadrupole, Data quantification and Data acquisition, General Software and Hardware, System Evaluation and Method building all are explained in detail.

Minimum Eligibility Required The trainee must hold a Diploma or Graduation Degree in Science field or must be pursuing the same.
