High-performance liquid chromatography

HPLC is a technique in analytical chemistry used to separate, identify, and quantify each component in a mixture. It relies on pumps to pass a pressurized liquid solvent containing the sample mixture through a column filled with a solid adsorbent material. Each component in the sample interacts slightly differently with the adsorbent material, causing different flow rates for the different components and leading to the separation of the components as they flow out the column.

HPLC has been used for manufacturing (e.g. during the production process of pharmaceutical and biological products), legal (e.g. detecting performance enhancement drugs in urine), research (e.g. separating the components of a complex biological sample, or of similar synthetic chemicals from each other), and medical (e.g. detecting vitamin D levels in blood serum) purposes.

Azura HPLC systems for Clinical Analysis

The Azura systems fit perfectly the needs for routine analysis in the clinical laboratory.
They all feature:

  • The new AZURA P 6.1L pump (isocratic or gradient mode) - 0.01 - 5.00 ml/min & 700bar - with leak management
  • Standard integrated degassing unit preventing any air bubble entering the system
  • A high speed Auto sampler 3950 with capacity of 96 samples (standard vials) or 768 (micro titer plates). Priority samples can easily analyzed during series.
  • Column thermostat CT 2.1  suitable for column thermo statization above and below room temperature
  • The programmable UV/VIS 2.1L (wavelength range 190 to 750 nm)
  • System control and data processing and reporting is made easy by the Clarity Chrome software.
  • The unique AZURA Mobile Control offers unattended system control via the Android tablet included in the system package.  

The systems can additionally be equipped with:

  • Aerometric detector Clin Lab EC3000 for analysis of biogenic amines
  • A high sensitive UV/VIS - PDA detector DAD 6.1.L for toxicological screening
  • High sensitive Fluorescence detector for analysis of Vitamins B1/B2/B6, Homo cysteine etc.
