Automated Liner EXchange (ALEX)
Improved routine analysis of samples with high levels of involatile compounds, particulates and other solid matrix material
Matrix residue from samples can contaminate a GC inlet liner afterwithin a few runs, leading to peak broadening and loss of analytes through adsorption in the liner. Under such conditions, the analyst is forced to perform frequent liner replacement, an operation which normally requires manual intervention. Running large series of samples will represent a serious challenge.
