Millipore and Dionex have announced a seminar where attendees can learn how to automate and improve IC workflow by eliminating contaminants in a closed system.
The seminar will demonstrate how to obtain reproducibility and consistency with an always-ready cap ion chromatograph.
Topics include how to automate sample preparation; capabilities of on-line IC and its applications; and tips and tricks.
Venues and dates are: Utrecht, 12 April (in Dutch); Mechelen, 27 April (in Dutch); and Louvain La Neuve, 30 April (in French).
Ion chromatography (IC) is a technique with applications ranging from simple anions and cations in water to more complex analysis of carbohydrates, amino acids and nucleic acids.
For any application to be successful, the IC system and its components must be working at optimal performance.
This seminar session will unveil tips and tricks to maintain the IC system at its peak performance level and discuss hardware, column, detector and suppressor issues along with troubleshooting tips to get the most out of an IC system.
Various contaminants in the water can have an effect on the ion chromatography systems and on the results of the analyses (ions, organics, particulates, bacteria).
These effects are reviewed, together with specifications for the quality parameters to consider for high-purity water.
