title: Effect of polarity on the response of the flame ionization detector to halothane.
abstract: Prepared standards of halothane in oxygen were analysed using a Pye Series 104 gas chromatograph equipped with a heated head flame ionization detector and gas sampling valve. The adoption of a positive jet voltage expanded the linear dynamic range of the detector to cover the 0.5-9.0% by volume range, provided that a small (0.5-ml) sample loop was used.
