chromatography detector gas chromatography detector gas chromatography detector PERSON:Daniel Schober chromatography detector, defined class/xps A gas chromatography detector is a chromatography detector that locates in the dimensions of space and time, the positions of the components of a mixture that has been subjected to a gas chromatographic process and thus permits the senses to appreciate the nature of the separation. There is no LC detector that has an equivalent performance to the flame ionization detector (FID) used in GC. In general, LC detectors have sensitivities of two to three orders of magnitude less than their GC counterparts and linear dynamic ranges one to two orders of magnitude lower. Only highly specific LC detectors have sensitivities that can approach those of GC detectors. http://msi-ontology.sourceforge.net/ontology/CHROM.owl#msi_01083 WEB:<http://www.chromatography-online.org/GC-Detectors/Classification/rs1.html> FID metadata complete
