PerkinElmer Expands Chromatography Offering With New Liquid Chromatography Autosampler
NEW ORLEANS – PerkinElmer Life and Analytical Sciences, a global leader in application-focused measurement and analysis solutions, today at PITTCON® 2008, Booth #2555, announced the introduction of the Series 225 LC Autosampler to enable customers to meet the demanding needs for automation, quantitation and throughput in analyses using liquid chromatography (LC). The autosampler is fully integrated into the PerkinElmer Series 200 family of LC products running on TotalChrom® software to support pharmaceutical, food and beverage, environmental, materials characterization and chemical industry research and testing.
“The Series 225 LC Autosampler was designed to enable customers to gain improved throughput,” said Eric Ziegler, Vice President of Chromatography, PerkinElmer Life and Analytical Sciences. “It also provides functionalities in the pre-injection phase, minimizing user intervention at a stage where reliability of operations can directly affect the results of the analysis. Additionally, temperature-controlled sample compartments improve application flexibility.”
Ziegler noted that the Series 225 LC Autosampler was also designed for ease of maintenance and serviceability. “The result is uncompromised quantitative analysis in liquid chromatography which contributes to greater peace of mind,” Ziegler said.
