Prep Chroma is now distributing Yamazen Science's flash LC products.
Yamazen's W-prep 2XY dual-channel flash LC system enables discovery scientists to perform two purifications in parallel.
A single-channel system, the AI580, is also available.
These eco-friendly systems feature an automatic gradient method setup based on TLC data to elute a target compound at around four-column volume, regardless of column size and flow rate.
This is claimed to save time while achieving a good separation.
Researchers can also use an automatic gradient setup based on TLC data (Rf) for step gradient elution to separate multiple target compounds and save on solvent consumption by up to 60 per cent.
There is a selection of four solvent compositions (A/B, A/C, B/D or C/D), with the change of the running parameters on the fly.
This includes click-and-drag method change as well as the changeover of the collection modes - Time, Peak and Peak and Slope - during a run.
The software integrates the use of a refractive index detector with or without an ultraviolet detector for the collection of fractions.
Snap and open cartridges and columns are available in a selection of chemistries to support a complete purification solution.
