The Restek catalogue is now available on CD to ensure customers have the latest information from the company on its range of chromatography products, supplied by Thames Restek UK.
The product range covers gas chromatography (GC) columns, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) columns, GC accessories, vials and syringes, HPLC accessories, sample preparation, air monitoring and analytical reference materials.
A GC/HPLC applications listing is included in the new catalogue, which has more than 700 pages.
The catalogue is fully priced, and the CD allows users to browse and select the most suitable products and systems for their chromatography needs.
Key new products for 2009 include a new generation of Plot GC columns with technology utilising concentric stabilised absorption layers.
The columns exhibit a constant flow behaviour (permeability) and have improved mechanical stability, resulting in easier operation, better chromatography and reduced particle release.
Greater particle stability means more reproducible retention times, virtually no spiking and longer column lifetimes.
The high-performance Rxi columns range has been expanded to include Rxi-35SilMS (mid-polarity phase; equivalent to 35 per cent phenyl methylpolysiloxane); Rxi-5HT (non-polar phase; five per cent diphenyl/95 per cent dimethylpolysiloxane); and the Rxi-17 (fused silica) has a new 0.18mm ID size The company's handheld electronic leak detector is backed by a one-year guarantee.
With optimised sample flowpath, ergonomic design, probe storage and longer lasting batteries (up to six hours of continuous use), the instrument detects helium, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide and hydrogen via a LED display.
The Claw and Claw Holder Kit easily removes hot liners from injection ports without burning operators' fingers.
The Claw safely removes liners, O-rings or small objects from the injection port that can then be safely placed in a clean 4mL vial in the Claw holder until ready for re-use.
An expanded range of Quechers SPE tubes is now available in three centrifuge sizes to meet the needs of both extraction and clean-up of pesticide residue samples from food products.
A fourfold increase in sample throughput is achieved with a fourfold decrease in material cost.
