The SFC-4000 System provides flexible configurations for any type of separation and purification. The SFC-4000 can be set-up for use as a single column/single detector system or as a multi-column/multi-detector system for rapid method development. ChromNAV is an easy-to-use data system with a user-friendly interface and comprehensive automated data analysis.
The use of Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) is a green alternative to traditional High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), with the use of CO2 taking the place of the organic solvent as the mobile phase. CO2 has benefits for cost, health & safety, as well as faster, cleaner sample recovery during sample purification. Other advantages of supercritical fluids include low viscosity with liquid-like densities, for higher solubility and increased column loading. The low viscosity and high diffusion lead to faster separations and faster extractions.
