    GlossaryGas Chromatography (GC)

    separates and analyzes vaporized compounds in a gas stream

    Gas Chromatography (GC) is a laboratory technique used to separate and analyze compounds that can be vaporized without decomposition. It involves injecting a sample into a gas stream, which carries it through a column filled with a stationary phase. Different compounds in the sample travel at different speeds, allowing them to be individually detected and quantified. This method is widely used in fields such as chemistry, biology, and environmental science for analyzing complex mixtures.
