ABSTRACT:
Gas Chromatography (GC) is an essential analytical technique widely employed for the separation, identification, and quantification of volatile and semi-volatile compounds. It has become an indispensable tool in diverse fields, including pharmaceutical sciences, environmental monitoring, forensic analysis, food safety, and petrochemical industries. The technique operates on the principle of differential partitioning of analytes between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase within a chromatographic column, enabling precise and high-resolution separations. Gas Chromatography with fundamental principles, instrumentation, operational parameters, and advancements with a focus on detectors such as Flame Ionization Detector (FID), Electron Capture Detector (ECD), and -Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) having crucial role in analysis of different compounds. Along with the integration of capillary columns, temperature programming, and automation has significantly enhanced the sensitivity, accuracy, and efficiency of GC in modern analytical applications. Additionally, emerging trends such as miniaturized GC systems, multidimensional and hyphenated techniques have expanded its capabilities in complex sample analysis.
