Description of equipment

APPLICATION AND SERVICES 
The analytical-semipreparative HPLC-MS system is managed by the FractionLynx browser which can: 
- Automate the sample purification process 
- Check the collection of fractions 
- Track the samples, their fractions and the data associated with them 
- Allows triggering and fraction collection using the two types of MS and UV detection simultaneously, reliably 
- Allows the purification of complex mixtures, the isolation and identification of different samples 
 
The ACQUITY UPLC-QDa system allows: 
- Separations on a nano to micro scale 
- Analysis of compounds present in limited quantities or availability even in the presence of complex matrices 
- Analysis of natural and synthetic small organic molecules 
- Analysis of peptides and / or metabolites 
- Pharmacokinetic studies of bioactive compounds

Features
Equipment list
LAB-0086 Analytical / semipreparative HPLC system
The analytical / semipreparative HPLC system is coupled to a single quadrupole mass spectrometer (mass range 20-2000 m / z) and PDA detector

LAB-0087 Autosampler and automatic fraction collector
The autosampler and the automatic fraction collector optimize the development of analytical methods and / or the purification of compounds

LAB-0088 UPLC-QDa Acquity System
The Acquity UPLC-QDa system is also coupled to a single quadrupole mass spectrometer (mass range 20-1250 m / z) and variable wavelength UV detector.
UPLC technology uses columns with particle diameter <2μm, this allows for a much higher chromatographic resolution than conventional HPLC technology, with very fast analysis times and higher sensitivity
Price list
Rates are defined according to specific requests.
Possibility of on-site measurements
It is possible to access the infrastructure by reservation, accompanied by authorized staff, and / or send samples for analysis (without directly accessing the structure). The technical feasibility of the request is evaluated and the experiments.
