Family-owned in the second generation since its founding in 1967, GERSTEL is mainly focused on automated sample preparation for Gas Chromatography / Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) and Liquid Chromatography / Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS).

Properly conditioned tubes are essential for performing thermal desorption analyses, so it is important to have an ample supply of tubes on hand. The GERSTEL Tube Conditioner (TC 2) allows simultaneous conditioning of up to 10 TDS tubes. The TC 2 is a stand-alone system and therefore provides the means to condition tubes without interfering with sample analysis.
