Add fractionation capabilities to the analytical SFC system System configuration examples
Upgrade to an analytical fraction system SFC-UV / SFC-MS System
By adding a fraction collector to the analytical scale SFC, small-volume fractionation is possible. A complete This is the minimum setup of Nexera UC and can replace both normal

be covered by the combination of supercritical CO2 and modifiers (for
example, MeOH). Hazardous organic solvents such as hexane or
chloroform are eliminated. In addition, the system reduces
environmental impact by utilizing low-toxicity mobile phases and
completing analyses in a shorter time. Both UV-Vis and MS detectors
such as the triple quad LCMS-8050 can be successfully coupled with
this SFC system.

Chiral Screening System
This system is best for developing methods to separate chiral
compounds. It automatically generates a large number of
methods by utilizing combinations of up to 12 columns, four
modifiers, and a different ratio of modifiers to mobile phase.
Small-volume fractionation is possible
The patented gas–liquid separator, the LotusStream successfully reduces sample dispersion due to the
™
volumetric expansion of CO2. It allows fractionation of small volumes, even into vessels such as 1.5 mL vials.
The optical isomers of linalool were fractionated with high purity.
