Gas Chromatography Infrared Spectroscopy (GC/IR) and Application to the Cannabis Industry
Presented by John Schneider, Argonne National Laboratory College of Du Page
Tuesday, June 21, 2022 ◉ 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm EST
Cost: $199
COURSE DESCRIPTION: The course will cover the basics of Gas Chromatography using Infrared Spectroscopy (GC/IR) for detection. The basic configurations of GC/IR will be discussed including the light pipe interface, cryogenic trapping, and matrix isolation. Several applications will be covered including food/flavor analysis, forensics, homeland security and application the the cannabis industry. The use of GC/IR data as complementary to GC/MS data will be discussed.
TARGET AUDIENCE: Scientists working to characterize complex mixtures. Scientists working in the Food/Flavor, Environmental. Forensics, and Cannabis Industries.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
Learn the basics of Gas Chromatography and Infrared Spectroscopy. Learn the utility of GC/IR and how it is complementary to GC/MS. Explore applications, especially to the Cannabis Industry.
TRACK: Cannabis/Psychedelics
CATEGORIES: Environmental Analysis, Food, Forensics, Gas Chromatography, Infrared Spectroscopy
