Liquid chromatography (LC) is a technique that can be used to separate, identify, and quantify components in a mixture. With various types and configurations available, understanding your lab’s needs and the capabilities of different systems is crucial for guiding your purchasing decision. For a list of LC manufacturers, see our online directory: LabManager.com/LC-manufacturers
5 Questions to Ask When Buying a Liquid Chromatograph:
- What columns are compatible with your sample type?
- What detector is best suited to your application?
- What software is available for instrument programming and data analysis, and how user-friendly is the interface?
- What level of post-sales support and warranty options are available from the manufacturer?
- Would a pre-owned LC system better accommodate your budget?
Size Exclusion Chromatography
Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is a type of LC that separates molecules based on size. SEC is a valuable method for separating and characterizing monoclonal antibodies and other therapeutic proteins.
