Performance Liquid Chromatography HPLC

Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) is a high-performance analytical technique that employs a liquid mobile phase to separate, identify, and quantify various compounds in a sample. It is widely used in numerous industries, including pharmaceuticals, environmental analysis, and food science.

Equipment for Moisture Testing

HPLC systems comprise several key components that enable precise analysis:

• Solvent reservoir: Stores the mobile phase used for sample separation.
• Pump: Delivers the mobile phase through the system at a controlled flow rate.
• Injector: Introduces the sample into the mobile phase stream.
• Chromatographic column: A packed or capillary tube lined with a stationary phase, where sample components are separated based on their interactions.
• Detector: Measures the presence and concentration of separated components as they elute from the column.
• Data acquisition and analysis software: Collects and analyzes data from the detector, generating chromatograms and providing quantitative results.

The selection of specific equipment depends on the nature of the sample, the target analytes, and the desired sensitivity and accuracy of the analysis. HPLC systems can be customized to meet specific application requirements.
