World’s first miniature multiplexed capillary UV detector in New Exhibitors Area at Pittcon 2007
5 Jan 2007Product news
Paraytec will be exhibiting the ActiPix® D100 miniature UV imaging detector in the New Products Area during Pittcon 2007.
The patented technology exploits capillaries as both sample cells and optical elements, providing inherent spatial separation of sample and reference beams and allowing a unique self-referencing system in a miniature format.
The ActiPix® D100 is ideal for capillary LC and CE systems giving high sensitivity detection without sacrificing spatial resolution. Imaging of single or multiple capillaries is readily achieved on a single sensor, unlike current commercial UV detectors. Applications include monitoring nanoscale biocatalytic reactions, simultaneous quantification and measurement of size of both small molecules and biomolecules, coupling with LC or CE-MS. The detector has low noise and a linear dynamic range up to five orders of magnitude.

Capillary ElectrophoresisCapillary electrophoresis (CE) is used to separate molecules based on charge, size and hydrophobicity. Pressure, voltage or a vacuum is used to introduce the sample to fused silica capillaries. Fluorescence, UV/Vis, UV or diode array detectors are used to visualize components. Types of CE systems include capillary electrochromatography (CEC), capillary zone electrophoresis and capillary gel electrophoresis.

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.

Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis.

The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics.

Explore a range of a gel imaging systems, densitometers, scanners, transilluminators or UV lamp + CCD cameras for your image analysis solutions. Colorimetric, fluorescent and/or radioisotopic samples can be visualized and documented for further analysis.
