Nexera Analytical SFC
Supercritical Fluid Chromatography System
Supercritical Fluid Chromatography System
(with optional supercritical fluid extraction capabilities)
High speed of analysis, sensitivity, and resolution
Supercritical CO2 enables high resolution chromatographic analysis, and the SFE system performs highly efficient sample extraction. The two can be performed on a single system (SFE/SFC system) or separately as needed by the user
High recovery rate of preparative purification with excellent operability
Reliable small volume fractionation is ensured through Shimadzu’s unique collection technology.
Fully automated on-line sample preparation, analysis and fractionation
Target compounds are automatically extracted, analyzed, and fractionated.
Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is a separation method that uses supercritical CO2 as the mobile phase. The benefits of supercritical CO2 are the low polarity similar to n-hexane, the lower viscosity, and the high diffusion coefficient, which offers potential advanced separation methods that are different from conventional HPLC separation. Thanks to this feature, SFC enables unique analyses, such as high resolution chromatography, simultaneous analysis of compounds over a wide polarity range, and improvement of MS detection sensitivity.
For preparative scale, Nexera Prep SFC is Here
Features
-
The analysis time can be effectively shortened because an excellent chromatographic resolution can be maintained even at higher flow rates than those typically used for HPLC.
-
Separation results can be quickly obtained during method development by screening with both SFC and UHPLC.
-
By using a fraction collector, small-volume fractionation is also possible (ex: 96 well MTP's.)
-
Target compounds are extracted from solid samples, and then automatically transferred to SFC.
-
By using SFC, the consumption of organic solvent is reduced by 94.2%, compared to the normal-phase.
