UHPLC systems represent the latest development in liquid chromatography instrumentation.
Beside enhancements necessary to operate with sub 2 µm particle columns, they differ
from each other through their versatility in handling various applications on the
same instrument without any changes.
Shimadzu’s new LC-30A Nexera is unsurpassed in high-speed and high-resolution analysis
and productivity. It meets the needs of the most demanding markets such as pharmaceutical
and the food industry.
Nexera pumps offer a flow range from 0.0001 ml/min up to 3ml/min with 130 MPa pressure
and from 3.0001 up to 5 ml/min with 80 MPa pressure. This allows the use of longer
columns for covering fast LC with high flow rates and short columns as well as highest
resolution using long columns.
The new developed micro-reactor based mixer supports a small system volume and very
short gradient delays. The Nexera autosampler provides reduced carryover compared
to the previous instruments by keeping the direct injection with isolated metering
system principle using 3 rinse solvents, various rinsing modes and design changes
at needle and needle seal. To increase the throughput overlapping pre-treatment
can be used. The pre-treatment capabilities expand the application range of this
instrument.
LC-30A Nexera can be used for semi-micro, conventional and UHPLC methods without
changes on the flowline. It fulfils the demands of an all-round LC system with high
reliability and robustness.
