Suffering from Separation Anxiety? Shimadzu Has The Cure! Shimadzu’s MDGC/GCMS system exhibits separation power not possible with a single-column system. Complex matrices derived from natural products, such as food or biological extracts, have traditionally proven to be problematic for target compound analyses. The new multidimensional heart cutting system MDGC/GCMS-2010, incorporating a “multi-Deans switch,” greatly increases separation power by combining two capillary columns of different selectivity, allowing you to separate and quantify your target compounds like never before. Multiple cuts can be made from the first dimensional column without retention time disruption. This, along with fully integrated software control of flows, pressures and the switching program makes method development simple.
Benefits: ■ Stable retention times allows for more precise heart cuts, leading ultimately to better measurements ■ Dual-oven system eliminates the need for cryo-trapping or focusing, allowing for faster overall analysis times ■ Flexibility – Any combination of GC or MS detectors may be used; single-oven operation is also available
Features: ■ Full software control and guidance of pressure and flow set points allows for quick set up of your column switching system ■ Stable retention times allow for multiple cuts to be programmed from the first dimension chromatogram ■ MDGCsolution Software displays the first dimension chromatogram, allowing the user to create a switching program quickly and accurately, making method development easy
