Determination of Fatty Acid Methyl Ester and Triglyceride in Mixture of Biodiesel Fuel and Diesel Fuel Using JASCO's LC-2000 Plus Series Modular Components

23 Jun 2015

Carbon dioxide exhausted from the combustion of biodiesel in a diesel engine is reabsorbed by plants through photosynthesis, offsetting the amount of carbon dioxide consumed by the plant material: carbon neutrality. As a result, determination of fatty acid methyl esters and triglycerides in fuel is now of increased interest. This application note details the use of JASCO LC 2000 Plus series modular components in the measurement of fatty acid methyl ester and triglyceride in mixture of biodiesel fuel and diesel fuel. The LC-2000Plus Series is JASCO's latest development in High Performance Liquid Chromatography, meeting the key requirements of today's analytical laboratory.

LC-4000 Series Integrated HPLC and UHPLC Systems

JASCO (USA)

The LC-4000 Series is the latest in a long history of innovative HPLC systems developed by JASCO reaching all the way back to the start of commercial HPLC in the early 1970s. The concept of the integrated LC-4000 series HPLC provides key separation platforms at 50MPa, 70MPa and 130MPa which correspond to conventional HPLC, the increasingly popular Rapid Analysis (RHPLC) and sub 2um UHPLC, respectively. Each platform is supplied with a dedicated pump and autosampler matched to the operating pressure and all three platforms share common detectors optimized for high-speed 100Hz acquisition and the narrow peak shapes common to both RHPLC and UHPLC. Features 300mm wide footprint Each system component is completely stackable into a modest height The system is fully integrated with complete system monitoring All user replaceable components are accessible through the front panel Vertical leak/drain system to channel away solvent Integrated earthquake securing option All detectors include 100Hz acquistion with interchangeable flowcells Preparative HPLC Systems The LC-4000 preparative HPLC systems includes three platform options Up to 20mL/min for columns up to 21.2mm ID Up to 50mL/min for columns up to 3cm ID Up to 120mL/min for columns up to 5cm ID

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.

Useful features of analyzers such as BOD and COD include portability, easy calibration, automation and sensitivity.  Environmental test kits for pH, water, moisture, etc, should be accurate, sensitive, reliable, fast and easy to use.Bioprocessing / FermentationBioprocessing is the use of biological materials to perform commercial, scientific or medical research processes. Biological materials used include cells, enzymes and organisms. Usually bioprocessing requires a batch or continuous bioreactor such as a fermentor or cell culture system. The advantages of using a reactor include high productivity, easy configuration, adjustable values and automation.Refractive IndexChromatographyChromatography is a powerful technique used to separate and analyze components of mixtures based on their chemical properties. It is widely used in fields like biochemistry, pharmaceuticals, and environmental analysis. By exploiting differences in the interaction of substances with a stationary phase and a mobile phase, chromatography enables precise purification and quantification of compounds. Whether you're working with complex biological samples or industrial chemicals, chromatography is essential for obtaining high-quality results.
