Product news

The new 815 Robotic Soliprep Sample Processor family is primarily intended for sample preparation of solid samples in ion analysis, such as ion chromatography, HPLC or voltammetry. Also, due to their flexibility, they can also be used for titrimetric or direct measurement applications.

If you have to reduce the particle size of your samples, homogenize them, filter them and are extensive liquid handling facilities essential, then the 815 Robotic Soliprep Sample Processors are a necessary tool.

The 815 Robotic Titration Soliprep, 815 Robotic Filtration Soliprep and 815 Robotic Flexible Soliprep reliably carry out these steps for you and offer you additional possibilities for the professional preparation of your samples. These compact and economic automation systems facilitate your daily routine work, like fully automatic preparation of inluding liquid handling, and, thanks to the standardization of the sample preparation procedure, provide more accurate results.

Features include:
Fully automatic homogenization and titration in a single run
Homogenization, filtration and extensive liquid handling in one
Intelligent liquid handling with Dosino technology
Versatile, fully automatic sample preparation
Space-saving, proven Metrohm technology
Easy operation with tiamo™ software

UHPLC and HPLCHigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), also known as UPLC, are analytical techniques used to separate, identify and quantitate components of complex mixtures including biological samples such as proteins and lipids as well as chemical mixtures of pesticides, drugs and oils. Both techniques are liquid chromatographic methods but differ by operating pressures (HPLC < 6000 psi < UHPLC ). Components of HPLC and UHPLC systems include columns, detectors, pumps, autosamplers and column heaters. Explore a range of UHPLC and HPLC columns for your specific sample needs including reverse phase, normal phase, ion exchange, HILIC, ion exclusion and size exclusion columns. For more specialized HPLC, explore FPLC, countercurrent LC and simulated moving bed systems.

Equipment includes ion exchange columns, ion exclusion columns, ion chromatography systems, pumps, and detectors.

Products to assist sample preparation include filtration equipment, evaporators, membranes and sieves.VoltammetryVoltammetry is a sensitive analytical technique for elemental detection. In a voltammeter the current is measured in the system whilst the voltage is varied. Usually 3 metal electrodes are required including the reference, auxiliary and working electrodes. In polarography, a subclass of voltammetry, the working electrode used is a dropping mercury electrode (DME). The 2 main types of voltammetry are cyclic and linear sweep voltammetry.TitrationTitration is an analytical technique for determining substance concentration in a solution. For titration consider a manual or automated system, volumetric or coulometric reagent addition and indication by a potentiometer, spectrometer, turbidometer or by the Karl Fischer method. Other features of titration to consider include burettes, reagents, concentration range, reaction time and autosamplers.
