Preparative chromatography training

TLC Reader for Yamazen Flash Chromatography System

2011-02-08T03:38:00.000-08:00

In normal phase chromatography, chemists would typically run a TLC on their samples prior to column chromatography. This involves the time-wasting process of calculating the TLC Rf values for the target compound. Yamazen has introduced a TLC plate reader to work in an automated mode with its Flash Chromatography Systems. So that now, a chemist would run a TLC and simply place the TLC plate on the reader, then the TLC image reader would read and calculate the Rf vlaues. These values and the solvent mixture is fed to Yamazen's patented automated method setting software which develops a gradient method that elutes the compound of interest at 4-column volumes. This minimizes solvent use and waste disposal while achieving good sample separation. Hence, Eco-friendly and substantial savings on lab expenses.

Yamazen Science is at booth #409, ACS Exposition, Anaheim California, March 28-30, 2011

Cecil Instruments launch Semi-Prep HPLC Pump

2010-03-09T04:17:00.000-08:00

Using over 40 years experience of HPLC instrumentation, Cecil Instruments have added an enhanced semi-prep HPLC pump to their existing Adept range. The pump has a flow rate range of 0.01 to 50ml/min and can be used in isocratic as well as high pressure gradient modes. It offers the advantage of smooth, easy and reproducible transitions in scaling up from analytical to semi-preparative work.

Being a modular HPLC component, this pump can be used with AutoQuest autosampler, Column heater/chillers, WaveQuest UV/VIS ultra-fast scanning detectors, and fraction collectors for complete automation in the long-term, fast and reliable collection of fractions. It may also be used with third party systems.

It is easy and fast to install, virtually plug and play. Please mail info@prepchroma.com for more information.

Prep Chroma and Yamazen Corp form Partnership

2010-01-26T02:56:00.000-08:00

Prep Chroma announces partnership with Yamazen Corp. This agreement enables Prep Chroma to distribute Yamazen's preparative LC products in the UK and parts of Europe.

Yamazen Corp. has over 35 years experience in designing and manufacturing medium presssure liquid chromatography (MPLC) instruments and consumables for the purification market. Its W-Prep Flash Chromatography system is the only independent dual channel flash LC system on the market i.e. two samples can be purified at the same time. Yamazen's LC systems are complimented by large-scale prep columns and flash columns and cartridges packed under proprietary Yamazen technology.
