[Examples for using capillary gas chromatography with wide bore columns in occupational health].
Wide bore capillary columns (0.4-0.75 mm ID) can be easily and inexpensively installed in packed column GCs. The analytical advantages cause an expanding market for such capillaries and interconverting hardware kits. It is illustrated with some examples that often individual exposition levels can be determined exactly only by using capillary columns: ethylbenzene may be separated from the C8-isomers also in complex mixtures, the marker PBN for rubber smoke expositions can be determined with 30 min sampling time, the detection sensitivity of the FID is sufficient also for chlorinated pesticides and the analyses of high-boiling compounds profit by the high phase ratio of wide bore capillary columns. A single capillary column substitutes a variety of different packed columns, so saving time and money and protecting the analyst from failures and frustrating compromises.
