There are many applications - from the characterisation of oils and fats (cis-trans and saturated/unsaturated etc..) to the analysis of traces of pesticides

and herbicides in fruit and vegetables. Nowadays the connection of a GC to a

mass spectrometer is relatively inexpensive and gives more specificity. Liquid chromatography extends the range of analytes such as many toxins (aflatoxins etc) which are unsuitable for GC and for example flavanoids in foods
