Sensitive reliable fluorescence detection As a standalone detector or in an automated Agilent 1200 Series system the Agilent 1200 Series fluorescence detector brings high-sensitivity fluorescence detection to your lab. This easy-to-use detector provides quantitative data and fluorescence spectra from a single run. Simultaneous multi-wavelength detection improves sensitivity and selectivity. Use the spectral information for rapid method optimization and verification of separation quality.
Features
- Superior sensitivity for lower detection limits at any combination of excitation and emission wavelengths . A long-life flash lamp, simplified optics and a reference system improve baseline stability.
- Improved selectivity and sensitivity by simultaneous multiple wavelength detection. Monochromators work in signal or spectral mode and are synchronized with the flash light to allow for detection at up to 4 excitation or emission wavelengths.
- Specification for dual wavelength operation now also available.
- Method optimization or peak confirmation by exploring the spectral landscape. View online spectra without interrupting your chromatography.
- Fast offline characterization of new compounds - Fill the FLD cuvette with your pure compound and take a fluorescence scan to get a complete visualization of all excitation and emission spectra with a single task.
- Verify wavelength accuracy for GLP compliance - Automatically check the built-in wavelength calibration (Raman band H20) with external standards that your wavelength is indeed what the setpoint says it is.
- Built-in diagnostics software and long-life lamp.
- Easy front access to flow cell for fast inspection or exchange.
