The random appearance of unknown peaks (ghost peaks), contaminant peaks, loss of sensitivity or lack of reproducibility are not uncommon in chromatography. Determining the root cause of these issues can be time consuming and difficult to troubleshoot. In many cases, the root cause is determined to be the sample vials. In this webinar we’ll delve into the critical role of chemically tested sample vials, ensuring accurate and reliable analytical outcomes. Discover how seemingly minor details—such as vial septum material, dimensions, and the glass surface can significantly impact your results. Our experts will guide you through real-world cases where choosing the right vial made all the difference.
