The basics of your day to day analytical work
Nitrogen, Hydrogen, Synthetic air and Helium are the “Top 4” gases used in analytical instruments. Argon, Carbon dioxide and Oxygen are used in more specific applications.
N
Nitrogen
Carrier gas for gas chromatography
H
Hydrogen
Combustion medium for flame charged detectors
SA
Synthetic air
Oxidiser for flame charged detectors
He
Helium
Carrier gas for fast gas chromatography
