...columns are very short GC columns with a high number of theoretical plates which allow very high sample capacity and allow very high flow rates. Multi-Cap capillaries are available form Alltech and BeeChrom capillaries from Chemspace.

This article compares home-made packed capillary columns with an Alltech MC-1. The separation of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMES) is given as example. A fully separation up to C18 FAMES was obtained in 2 minutes. Several van Deemter curves are shown and discussed. |

Short Review |
As multicapillary columns are operated in high flow mode on one hand and mass spectrometers require a very low vacuum on the other hand, several problems may occour coupling MCs to MS. To overcome such obstacles special interfaces like open splitters, membrane separators or jet separators were built and evaluated. |
