Zebron-ZB-Dioxin GC Column

Dioxin Analysis by GC

Zebron ZB-Dioxin columns are specifically tailored for the analysis of dioxins and furans in Food and Environmental matrices.

Tetra Dioxins and tetra Furans are highly toxic, the current analysis is time consuming and requires two GC columns and two GC-HRMS instruments. The unique selectivity of ZB-Dioxin provides an enhanced resolution of 2,3,7,8-TCDD and 2,3,7,8-TCDF from its isomers in one run, as a result customer will be using the ZB-Dioxin as a single column solution for Dioxin analysis. Upgrade your existing Dioxin phase to Zebron ZB-Dioxin GC columns and get all the analytical benefits of proven single solution.

Zebron™ ZB-Dioxin features

  • Improve Lab productivity by 50%
  • Enhanced resolution of TCDD & TCDF
  • Improved column lifetime with integrated column option
  • MS Certified, low bleed GC column

FAQs

Though the upfront cost of self-packing your liner may seem attractive, the time and headaches caused by resulting tailing or irreproducible peaks can be sizeable! Self-packed wool fibers commonly break during installation and any existing deactivation on the liner can also be scratched or damaged. Scratches in the deactivation layer are likely to occur when removing wool from the liner or re-packing it with new wool. Also, when wool is forcefully inserted or removed, these scratches could expose active sites, resulting in peak tailing and poor reproducibility. Pre-packed Zebron PLUS liners undergo the deactivation process with the quartz wool already in place, which ensures that any active sites that form during packing are not exposed. Its novel touchless packaging and preinstalled O-ring prevent contamination during installation.
Yes. Zebron PLUS liners are packed with quartz wool, which serves two purposes: a) Quartz wool promotes homogenous vaporization of analytes and solvent in the inlet to effectively transfer them to the head of the GC column. b) Quartz wool acts as a filter, trapping non-volatile impurities and preventing them from proceeding further into the GC column.
It is not recommended to scrub/sonicate your liners. Residue formation indicates contamination. More specifically, this shows that the sample contains non-volatile impurities, in which case it is recommended to replace your liner rather than clean it. Sonication can alter the liner’s deactivation, and scrubbing can create scratches and active sites. As a result, you can have several chromatography problems such as poor quantitation, analyte breakdown, poor reproducibility, peak asymmetry, etc.

For analysis of active compounds, it is crucial to use both a highly inert column and a highly inert liner. The liner is the first place of potential analyte interaction during GC analysis; it is important that your analytes are not adsorbed. Zebron PLUS liners undergo a rigorous deactivation process and are tested for inertness to ensure reliable results when working with highly active compounds such as underivatized acids and active bases.
The inlet is the most common place where problems happen in gas chromatography. This is because: • The inlet is subjected to very high temperatures. • There are multiple consumables involved in the inlet that need routine maintenance. • Some inlet modes, such as splitless injection, are a slow process, meaning that target analytes and the inlet can interact with each other before the sample enters the column.
Analysis of dirty samples, samples with wide boiling points, or samples with wide molecular weights can be enhanced by choosing a Zebron™ PLUS liner with quartz wool. Liners packed with wool can prevent non-volatile compounds from entering the column and improve sample vaporization for a more robust, reproducible analysis.
