New System Integrates ELSD into CombiFlash® Rf Chromatography Systems

Teledyne Isco announces the introduction of its new CombiFlash® Rf automated Flash chromatography system, which includes the internal integration of Electronic Light. Scattering Detection (ELSD).

By integrating ELSD functionality, the overall footprint of the system is greatly reduced when compared to the use of an external detector. As a result, chemists are able to reduce required bench space by 30% or more.

The performance of the integrated system is equivalent to the performance achieved by using a standard CombiFlash Rf 200 system with an external 340CF ELSD detector. All operating parameters of the integrated ELSD are handled using Teledyne Isco’s powerful PeakTrak® software.

Teledyne Isco ELSDs use patented Thermo-Split™ technology to precisely control the spray chamber and drift tube temperatures, thereby optimising detector sensitivity over a wide range of flow rates and gradients.

By accurately controlling the nebulisation zone temperature, the mobile phase-toanalyte ratio can be closely regulated. A flexible signal filter option reduces baseline noise, without affecting resultant peaks.
