The CombiFlash Rf+ Lumen system enhances detection capabilities with an integrated evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD). In addition to UV or UV-Vis detection for absorbing compounds, the ELSD detects compounds with little or no chromophores such as carbohydrates, steroids, and lipids. The integrated ELSD conserves valuable bench space.
Large fraction capacity allows longer runs without changing racks. You don't need to divert time from other activities to watch your purification. An automated injection valve lets you load samples and walk away - and it's self-cleaning to wash away materials that can contaminate the next run.
Whether you separate synthetic compounds, natural products, peptides, polymers, or other chemical separations; the CombiFlash Rf+ Lumen improves your compound's detectability.
The ELSD withdraws a miniscule portion of the liquid eluting from the chromatographic column into the detector module. This fluid is then nebulized using a stream of inert gas. This mixture forms an aerosol cloud of solvent droplets containing your compound. The aerosol cloud is then evaporated, leaving micro-particles of dried compound.
