Agilent 5977C GC/MSD System with 8890 Gas Chromatograph and 7693A Automatic Liquid Sampler featuring Inert EI Source, robust gas chromatography-mass spectrometry platform for environmental testing, food safety analysis, pharmaceutical research, forensic toxicology, and industrial chemical applications.

Key Features

  • Reliable Inert EI Source — Built from inert materials to reduce active-site interactions, enhancing sensitivity for compounds that bind to metal surfaces.

  • Exceptional Detection Performance — Instrument detection limit (IDL) for InertPlus / Inert EI sources is 10 fg using helium carrier gas, and 20 fg with stainless EI source.

  • Fast, Clean Signal — Triple-Axis Detector (TAD) — Delivers scan speeds up to 20,000 u/s with reduced noise, ensuring high-quality data acquisition.

  • Smart System Integration — Paired with the 8890 GC’s touch-screen and browser interface, CrossLab Smart Alerts, and proactive diagnostics.

  • Robust Inert Flow Path — Includes inert columns, liners, gold seals, and ferrules to preserve sample integrity and reproducibility.

  • Sustainable Design — Certified with the My Green Lab ACT Label, supporting environmentally responsible practices.


Applications

  • Routine Environmental, Food, & Chemical Analysis — Optimized for contaminants, toxins, and regulated compound detection.

  • Pharmaceutical and Forensic Workflows — Provides stable, reproducible EI analysis for compound screening and quantitation.

  • General Materials & Petrochemical Labs — Combines rugged build and inert ionization for consistent performance in demanding environments.
