General description

SupraSolv® ECD and FID is specially developed for gas chromatography in combination with ECD (Electron Capture Detetor) and FID (Flame Ionization detector). SupraSolv® solvents offer the largest specified retention time range, a clear baseline and a minimum signal-to-noise ratio leading to reliable and reproducible analysis results.

Application

Ideal for GC applications including sensitive detection in residue and environmental analysis. A typical example includes determination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in water and soil or pesticides in fruits and vegetables.

Analysis Note

Evaporation Number: 1.9
