HI,

I would like to find out whether 15% DEGS(20 ft)80 mesh packed column is capable of detecting fatty acid methyl esters in range of C8 - C16.May I also know what is the appropriate temperature settings. Currently i am setting Column Temperature = 200 (that's the maximum), Det and Inj Temp at 240degrees Celcius. THe brand is Chemito.
Actually i am analysing content of polyhydroxyalkanoate (a biopolymer) which is methanolysed. I inject 2 microlitres of this sample. I am trying to ramp the oven temperature, because the above settings do not produce favourable results.
Please email me at kyas81@hotmail.com

Thanks a lot
