GC pioneers of the first hour

Just four years after the drivers of GC technology were awarded the Nobel Prize, Shimadzu developed its first GC system in Japan. That was in 1956, and this year Shimadzu celebrates its 60^th GC anniversary. In the last decades, the company has succeeded with many technical milestones that are meanwhile standards today. One of the developments, representing this spirit of innovation, is the GC-2025 capillary gas chromatograph. The system minimises environmental impact by reducing power and carrier gas consumption while retaining the performance required for capillary analysis. The GC-2025 incorporates a digital flow controller managing both carrier and detector gases, and a newly designed energy-saving column oven featuring small volume with less heating loss, bringing a dramatic improvement in operability. The compact GC-2025 provides eco-friendly, high value performance.
