This application note describes the analysis of malt whiskey using an ultra low bleed VF-WAXms column. The reduced column bleed level in the 210-260 °C temperature range enables a more accurate detection and quantification of impurities eluting close to the maximum temperature of the column. Capric acid and other minor impurities, which elute at these higher temperatures, can be detected at lower concentration levels and with improved accuracy.
This document presents an application note detailing the analysis of malt whiskey using an ultra-low bleed VF-WAXms gas chromatography column. The reduced column bleed level in the 210-260 °C temperature range allows for more accurate detection and quantification of impurities eluting near the column's maximum temperature. Specifically, capric acid and other minor impurities can be detected at lower concentration levels with improved accuracy.
