- Versatile sample delivery uses vials or multi-well plates.
- Designed to utilize the popular microtiter plate format
- Three Injection Modes - flushed loop, partial loop and microliter pick-up for excellent reproducibility and no sample loss when dealing with limited sample volumes.
- Biocompatible , non-metallic flow path; stainless steel also available.
- Automated derivatization and diluting capabilities provide flexible formats for sample preparation.
- Uses 96, 96 deep and 384 well microtiter plates or up to 48 -1.5 mL sealed vials.
- Optional Peltier sample temperature control for cooling of sample vial/plates.
This versatile, multi-function HPLC autosampler can access samples from microtiter plates and standard autosampler vials. This unit can accommodate 96 and 384 standard and deep well micro plates, or up to 48 standard sample vials in a supplied rack. Sample cooling is available on selected models. Biocompatible fluidics are standard with optional stainless steel plumbing. It incorporates three selectable injection modes: full loop, partial loopfill and microliter pick-up. Sample processing capabilities are provided for sample mixing, dilution and on-line sample derivatization.
An optional plate feeder can fully automate sampling from as many as seven standard plates and 3 deep well plates.
