LC Systems Provide Full Automation

Shimadzu Scientific Instruments has added two integrated liquid chromatography systems to its HPLC and UHPLC line—the Prominence-i and Nexera-i.

Combining enhanced functionality, an intuitive operating environment and full automation, the series provides performance and an efficient workflow for conventional to ultra-high-speed analysis. The systems feature innovative, intuitive and intelligent design so users can begin building the lab of the future. Through the integration of these systems with LabSolutions software, the company fosters a relationship between users and instrumentation. The data acquired by the systems via interactive communication mode (ICM) is sent to a lab’s data center by the LabSolutions network and managed uniformly by a server. ICM allows users to perform operations such as purging mobile phases and confirming analytical results from anywhere in the facility with a smart device. It also permits easy access to a system installed in a closely supervised area, such as under a hood, where highly active ingredients are being analyzed. The chromatography systems can be used in a range of industries such as pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, chemical, environmental, food and academic teaching.
