Which of the following is not a detector for Gas Chromatography ?

  • A.Electron Capture
  • B.Electrospray
  • C.Thermal Conductivity
  • D.Flame Ionization Detector

Answer: B

Electrospray is not a detector for gas chromatography.

Electrospray ionisation is a method of producing ions from a liquid, used to couple liquid chromatography to a mass spectrometer. It needs a liquid stream, so it has no place in GC, where the sample is a gas.

The electron capture detector (sensitive to halogenated compounds), the thermal conductivity detector (universal) and the flame ionisation detector (for organic compounds) are all standard GC detectors.
