“…Several tests and calibrations have been achieved on these 5 columns (Szopa et al, 2001(Szopa et al, , 2002a(Szopa et al, ,b, 2004. In particular their robustness for space application has been studied (Szopa et al, 2002a(Szopa et al, , 2014. Several examples of typical chromatographic analyses have been published previously (see Szopa et al, 2003, and references therein).…”

“…COSAC uses eight parallel capillary columns with different stationary phases coupled to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer to analyze organic molecules in situ in the ices of the nucleus of comet 67P/C-G. Rosetta is the first space mission ever that is equipped with a chirality evaluation device. COSAC's five achiral stationary phases (Szopa et al 2014) and the three chiral stationary phases (Meierhenrich et al 2013) have been tested successfully for long term vacuum exposure. Particular interest has been given to the chirality experiment, by which COSAC will separate, quantify, and identify chiral organic molecules in cometary ices (Myrgorodska et al 2015).…”

“…A potential risk associated with using reagents on a mission of exploration is that the instrument and spacecraft will experience a range of thermal and radiation environments during mission operations, which could potentially lead to chemical degradation. Despite this, very few articles have been published on the thermal stability testing of reagents for spaceflight as this type of data is more frequently used for internal decision‐making within instrument teams.…”
