CHROMATOGRAPHY
chromatographic media to create a single plug. T erefore, the traditional SPE system of frit-media-frit is replaced with a single plug that contains the active media. While the media provides the same retention characteristics as the loose material, the composite method imparts a number of key benefi ts to the clear up of phospholipids. Innovations from the company SRI include the H2-100 Hydrogen Generator. Many of the GCs the company ships now do not require any gas at all to operate because they are equipped with built-in hydrogen generators and air compressor. It makes GC quality hydrogen from distilled water and is perfect for labs that would prefer not to (or can’t) include hydrogen cylinders. In June SRI decided to discontinue
the Model 420 GC. It will continue to provide support for its customers that use it. T e company made the decision due to the development of the Model 310MM GC, which it has decided to be a much more viable choice for measuring cannabis while still being within a reasonable price range. In March, Shimadzu released the Clam-2030 fully automated preparation module for LC-MS. T is module automates everything from the preparation of urine, blood and other

biological samples to measurement via LC-MS. In only three to eight minutes, the Clam-2030 preparation module completes the blood sample’s preparatory process, including the addition of reagents, mixing of the solution and the addition of a deproteinisation liquid – compared with the 15 to 20 minutes this process conventionally takes. Furthermore, if the samples and reagents are placed and positioned in special

containers for automatic conveyance to the LC-MS by an autosampler, the module can perform all of the processes automatically, on weekends and overnight. Shimadzu also recently released
the Nexgen GC multidimensional gas chromatograph, which achieves miniaturisation and high-speed analysis with “plate column” technology and multi-deans switch. It is a next generation GC, making it easy to use multidimensional analysis suitable for complex components by installing two gas chromatographs in a small body. T e Nexgen GC has an installation area of about 30% less compared with conventional models, and cuts analysis time by half. Furthermore, it improves analytical productivity through high speed and space saving. Shimadzu also announced the release
of the Nexera Ultra High-Performance Liquid Chromatograph series, incorporating artifi cial intelligence as Analytical Intelligence, allowing systems to detect and resolve issues automatically. T e Nexera series makes lab management simple by integrating IoT and device networking, enabling users to easily review instrument status, optimise resource allocation, and achieve higher throughput. T e Nexera UHPLC series maximises
reliability and uptime with fully unattended workfl ows that span from startup to shut-down. Operators can set the system to start up at a specifi ed time, so that it can complete auto- purge, equilibration, baseline checks
