- Typical uses of GC include testing the purity of a particular substance or separating the different components of a mixture.
- In preparative chromatography, GC can be used to prepare pure compounds from a mixture.
- Gas chromatography is also sometimes known as vapor-phase chromatography, or gas–liquid partition chromatography.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Gas chromatography article was read about 69,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 76: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
