5977C Inert Plus GC/MSD
5977C GC/MSD
At Agilent we continuously strive for innovation. The new HydroInert source for hydrogen carrier applications not only minimizes disruptions from helium shortages but also improves spectral fidelity, peak shape, and sensitivity when running with hydrogen. System intelligence, like remote monitoring and email-based instrument health alerts, make system monitoring easier and more actionable. Together, these new capabilities on the 5977C GC/MSD improve sample throughput and analytical performance, enabling better business outcomes for your lab.
