Hvad?
This instrument enables purification of organic (and inorganic) molecules from complex reaction mixtures. This highly specialized purification system combines size-exclusion chromatography (GPC, gel permeation chromatography) with a recycling system. This allows the automatic GPC purification continuously until the separation is complete, with re-use of solvents. It is particularly efficient for purifying polar macromolecules and polymers that contain UV-absorbing chromophores.
Hvorfor?
This instrument will siginficantly ease the purification of complex mixtures of small molecules and polymers. This will enable fast and accurate characterization of molecules.
Hvordan?
I plan to purchase the instrument in the first quater of 2022, and expect the instrument to be working for the next decade.
