Customized barcodes simplify inventory management and reduce errors

It’s important to keep track of Agilent J&W GC columns, Agilent Ultra Inert liners, and syringes installed in your GC. That’s why Agilent offers barcode scanning capability with Agilent data systems such as OpenLAB CDS ChemStation Edition and GC/MS MassHunter Software. Barcoding lets you keep an electronic record of your consumables inventory, with periodic updates available, as well. Figure 1 illustrates some of Agilent’s barcoding options.
