Laboratory Equipment - HNU Detectors Offer Added Sensitivity

Laboratory Equipment - HNU Detectors Offer Added Sensitivity

Here is Jack's interview from the Pittcon Booth last week. He describes the 4th generation PID which was the subject of one of our contributed oral sessions in the Pittcon 2010 Technical Session on GC Detectors. As we were reviewing the the Technical Program prior to the show we realized that our oral session titled "A New PID for Trace Analysis" was only one of six papers focusing on GC Detectors; in fact, the plenary lecture focused on the "role of high-end instrumentation" ie) GC-MS-MS. Our Add-On detectors are for budget-minded labs, requiring high performance from their old Lab GC(s), with do-it-yourself real-time analytical results. So we created a GC Detectors Group on Pittconnect with the goal of creating a GC Detectors Symposia for the Pittcon 2011. We had our first GC Detectors Group meeting at Pittcon on Monday March 1, 2010 at our booth. We are looking for more gas chromatography loving folks who use, manufacture or sell GCs to join us in creating an exciting curriculm for our GC Detectors Symposia. We'll be holding monthly meetings by conference call or webinar. Let me know if you'd like to join us.

Pittcon Technical Session Sunday GC Detectors

Don't miss this opportunity to hear Dr. Jack Driscoll, the Father of Photoionization, speak about the 4th Generation Photoionization Detector at the GC Detectors PITTCON Oral Session on Sunday at the OCCC RM 308C. Session starts at 1pm but make sure to stick around for speaker # 6 (Dr. Driscoll) "A New PID for Trace Gas Analysis" is scheduled for 2:35pm after the 2:20pm break. You can catch Jack before he speaks or just get yourself a good seat! Dr. Driscoll is credited with commercializing the first photoionization detector in 1973 and three years later applied the technology to a state-of-the-art add-on stand-alone GC detector for addition to lab GCs.

Sunday Posters Session At Pittcon

Join us for the Sunday Poster Sessions @pittcon for New Developments in Analytical Instrumentation and Software. Make sure to check out our two posters: #270-17 "Dual-Detector TCD/FUV GC for Coal Mine Safety Monitoring" and #270-38 "Pd-Hydrogen Nano Technology Study with a Scanning Tunnelling Microscope". OCCC RM W415 Valencia Ballroom C & D #pittcon

If you are at PITTCON, stop by our booth #2475

We're featuring 1) New Add-On GC Detectors (including the 4th generation PID which is even more sensitive), a TCD, an FID and the under-utilized FarUV 2) Portable GC 3) Compact Lab GC 4) Portable Photoionization Detector (check out our new low cost PID, if you haven't bought a PID in awhile you'll be surprised at how affordable ours are) 5) Portable PID with up to 3 additional sensors (choose from 30+ electrochemical sensors and an IR-based sensor). It's cool and convenient to build your own analyzer! 6) The low cost fixed continuous VOC monitor.

GC Detectors Group on Pittconnect

Join My GC Detectors Group on Pittconnect. We're looking for GC users, manufacturers, resellers etc to join us to discuss related symposia for Pittcon 2011. We're meeting Monday afternoon at my booth# 2475 at 4pm.
If you plan to attend the technical sessions Sunday, make sure to attend our oral session at 2:35pm called 'A New PID for Trace Analysis'.

The Sunday Poster Session is a must because it is so delightful: live music, free cocktails and light appetizers and wicked awesome science!Jack and I will be at poster #270-17 titled 'Dual Detector TCD/FUV for Coal Mine Safety Monitoring'. Jack may also be found at the simultaneously presented Nanotechnology poster # 270-38 that he worked on jointly with the Suffolk University Physics Department, Boston, MA."
