Detectors falls into three categories depending upon response to the eluting compounds:
· Non-selective – Respond to all component in the gas stream except for the carrier gas
· Selective – Respond to a particular class of compounds with common physical or chemical properties
· Specific – Respond to a single specific compound only in the carrier gas stream
