In this work, we investigated the effects of pre-columns and press-fit connectors on automated cold on-column injection capillary gas chromatography. Verapamil, a calcium channel blocking vasodilator used in the treatment of angina, arrhythmias and hypertension, and norverapamil, an active metabolite, were used as model compounds in these investigations. Wide-bore fused-silica tubing deactivated with OV-1701-vinyl was also studied with respect to its suitability as pre-column material. The detector response of verapamil versus an internal standard was consistent at micrograms/ml and ng/ml levels, while that of norverapamil decreased with the amount injected. However, the decrease in response of norverapamil appeared to be unrelated to the presence of a pre-column or press-fit connector in the chromatographic system.

Free fatty acids (FFAs) are important energy sources and significant for energy transport in the body. They also play a crucial role in cellular oxidative stress responses, following cell membrane depolarization, making accurate quantification of FFAs essential. This study presents a novel supercritical fluid chromatography-mass spectrometry (SFC-MS) method using selected ion recording in negative electrospray ionization mode, enabling rapid quantification of 31 FFAs within 6 min without derivatization.

Odor-active compounds are major quality parameters in food and other consumer products. In the analysis of odorants, gas chromatography (GC) plays a dominant role and is particularly indispensable for odorant screening by GC-olfactometry (GC-O). Whereas artifact formation during workup before GC analysis has been widely discussed, artifact formation during GC injection has not been adequately addressed so far.

Aiming at the problem of luminance uniformity for injection electroluminescent display panels, we present a new sample compensation method based on column-control according to successive scans theory. On the basis of our ideas, a small part of pixels of each column are selected as samples, and the column gating time calculated by sample average luminance value of corresponding column is written in hardware program. We adopt the 64 × 32 LEDs display panel as an example to expound the compensation method and obtain good result that the reduction in amplitude of luminance non-uniformity is 65.
