Simplify the Complexity in Carbohydrate Analysis

There is a faster, easier way to boost speed and productivity, and improve the reproducibility and accuracy of your results. Using new high-performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAE) workflows with Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ CarboPac™ columns, you can directly quantify even trace levels of complex carbohydrates with minimal sample prep - and no derivatisation.

Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ‘Just Add Water’ electrolytic eluent generation technology is an essential and powerful part of Reagent-Free™ Ion Chromatography (RFIC™) systems and this technology ensures excellent reproducibility and accuracy in eluent preparation. With the latest operating mode for RFIC systems, Dual Eluent Generation Cartridge (Dual EGC) mode, this novel option can replace the manual preparation of the sodium hydroxide/sodium acetate (NaOH/NaOAc) eluent gradients required for analysing complex carbohydrates.

Dual EGC mode is available on the Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ICS-6000 HPIC™ system to support complex carbohydrate analysis. In Dual EGC mode, RFIC systems employ methanesulfonic acid (MSA) and potassium hydroxide (KOH) Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ EGC Eluent Generator Cartridges, in series, to electrolytically generate potassium hydroxide/potassium methanesulfonate (KOH/ KMSA) eluents. This operating mode is applicable to capillary (0.4 mm) and analytical (1.0 mm) column formats.
