Headspace Sampler
Proven quality consumables are critical to getting the right analysis results and minimizing system downtime.
Shimadzu offers a wide range of consumables to maximize the performance of GC/GCMS systems.
The Xtra Low Bleed HS septa, which has high heat resistance, allows for high-temperature applications that were previously difficult with headspace samplers because it does not elute much bleed components even at 300 °C.
In the analysis of blood that has an added strong acid, corrosion of the HS needle causes not only deterioration of analysis accuracy but also risk of unexpected system downtime due to needle clogging. The use of acid-resistant Xtra Life HS needles reduces corrosion and enables long-term stable analysis.
Even blood samples prone to needle corrosion can be analyzed with confidence. Simultaneous analysis of alcohol and volatile toxins (Cyanide, azide, methanol, ethyl acetate, toluene) in blood is streamlined by using the Forensic Toxic Database.
