Hello, i'm an outsider to chromatography but i need a quote on the annual use of a GC-MS spectrometer for a 24hr period 365 days a year. I'm reviewing the cost-effectiveness. We use a hydrogen carrier gas. If possible the cost per sample analysis would be useful i know it varys. but an approximation would be useful. We're investigating pharmaceuticals. Thank you sincerely for any help.

Do you want to know how much it costs to operate (carrier gas and electricity) or how much a lab would charge to run samples 24/7?

yes i wish to know how much it would be to operate the GC-MS

given that an automator would be included to run 50 samples over a 24 hr period

You will find that I gave an answer on the same question you posted in the other (GC/MS) forum...
