GC-SOS Gas Chromatography Simulation & Optimization Software
GC-SOS® is an innovative program for the simulation & optimization of Gas Chromatography separations, for method development and teaching of chromatography principles. GC-SOS is the premier simulation tool for developing the most efficient GC methods!
Why use GC simulation software?
- GC method development is a time consuming and challenging task.
- Even veteran chromatographers find it difficult to manually optimize a method. In fact, it's quite difficult to accurately guess how the complex interactions of temperature, pressure and column size impact a separation.
- Manual trial-and-error approaches often produce sub-optimal separations, ultimately leading to lower performance and higher costs.
- Simulation and numerical optimization is the most effective way to achieve significantly faster method development, improved separation performance and lower analysis costs.
Why use GC-SOS?
- GC-SOS is the most advanced, powerful, and easy to use GC simulation program available. First released in 1996, GC-SOS has been used globally by leading companies, universities, and government agencies. The program was completely upgraded and re-launched in 2017 exclusively online. Our newest version continues a tradition of innovation, with proprietary features including enhanced numerical optimization, flexible requirements, improved accuracy, and animation.
- A method can be optimized via simulation in just a few minutes. Simply enter run conditions and retention data from 1 to 3 training run(s), then simulate the effect of new conditions. Instantly evaluate the effect of different temperature &/or pressure programs, or different column sizes. Use the proprietary Auto-Optimization function to quickly determine an optimal method with improved peak resolution and lower run times in seconds.
- Optimized methods provide greater separation performance, including improved resolution and lower run costs.
- Our 100% satisfaction guarantee insures there is no faster, easier, or more effective way to develop the most efficient GC methods.
This separation was optimized in just a few minutes, providing improved resolution and 50% reduction in run-time!
Example Application
Example Application
Initial separation:
Time = 36 minutes
Rez(min) = 4.7
Initial separation:
Time = 36 minutes
Rez(min) = 4.7
Optimized separation:
Time = 18 minutes
Rez(min) = 5.0
net-
improved resolution in 1/2 the time!
Optimized separation:
Time = 18 minutes

Simple, intuitive design
- Accurate simulations made via a single click- never wait for an experimental run again!
- Quickly evaluate the effects of temperature, pressure, or column size changes on your separaton.
- A high resolution plot shows simulations as they would look on a real instrument. Instant run analysis determines separation efficiency.
A remarkably effective way to optimize separations and demonstrate chromatography principles.
