Micro Analytical:  Gas - µChemLab

Micro Analytical Technical Information | Micro Analytical References

 

The µChemLab is a handheld chemical analysis system that combines sample handling, separation, and detection. µChemLab combines three cascaded stages; each realized using microfabricated components.

Stage one collects and concentrates samples.
Stage two is a gas chromatography (GC) column used to achieve sample separations. Stage three is an array of surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors used to detect the sample.
