Metrohm Celebrates 25 Years of Ion Chromatography

This year it is 25 years since Metrohm launched its first ion chromatograph, the 690 ion chromatograph. Since then Metrohm has profoundly changed ion chromatography with instruments that are simple to use, robust, and affordable. more20.04.2012

Partition Chromatography HPCCC

ERC, well known for special solutions in LC, introduces another highlight to the market:

The high performance CCC-systems (HPCCC) from Dynamic Extractions.

The separating and purification technology (liquid-liquid-chromatography) of these systems provides the user with additional, extremely interesting possibilities: both on a development and a preparative scale (from a few mg to approx. 1000g), substances can be continuously separated even where classical separation columns fail or have difficulties.

Spider Silk Proteins: Structure and Function Revealed by NMR Spectroscopy

This article discusses the structure and function of important regulatory elements in spider silk, the presence of which is vital for thread formation. Using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), both the three-dimensional structure as well as important findings on the function of these protein domains could be determined for the first time. more19.04.2012

Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) - Online and Offline Coupling with Mass Spectrometry

TLC is a very fast, convenient and cost effective tool to get information about mixtures. This type of chromatography is a daily task in a synthesis laboratory and can be accomplished on the bench. In most cases the chemist is interested in the identity of the separated compounds. Because of the limited amount of material which can be separated on an analytic TLC, mass spectrometry is the first choice to do this. more18.04.2012

RI-Detector for Fast Chromatography

The new RI detector "RefractoMax Ultra" was developed for fast chromatography. Refractive index detectors are a widely used detector type for general, isocratic applications. They are used for measuring analytes that bear no chromophores and/or are volatile. The RI series RefractoMax is characterized by short start-up times and excellent baseline stability, even over longer measurement periods. more17.04.2012

Solaris UV System for Chromatography Applications

Solaris, which was recently developed by Wyatt, is a UV-device for the sterilization of aqueous solutions in chromatography. It is placed directly on the solvent reservoir and protects all components of your chromatographic system as well as HPLC and light scattering instruments from contamination by algae, bacteria, and funghi. It supersedes the use of Sodium-Azide and eliminates the danger to handle toxic chemicals. The device protects your system from down-time due to contamination. more
