Nexera UC Prep  Benchtop system that can be installed anywhere

 Semi Preparative Supercritical Fluid Chromatography System  Usually a chiller is required to cool the solvent delivery pump when pumping CO2 at high  ow rates. However, the Nexera UC Prep
            features a compressor-type cooling unit, reducing the size of the system and allowing it to be installed anywhere. Its footprint is
            equivalent to an analysis-scale SFC system.
 The Nexera UC Prep is a new preparative supercritical  uid chromatography system that offers both the high
 performance achieved in the analytical Nexera UC model and additional state-of-the-art preparative SFC
 technologies.    Coolant line  Pump

              Stacked injection function eliminates waiting time

            Normal injection wastes time between peak elutions. Using the Nexera UC Prep’s stacked injection function, samples can be
            injected continuously without any waiting time, enabling more samples to be processed. Settings for this function can be
            speci ed easily in the dedicated software.

 In preparative SFC, one factor that results in lower recovery rates is increased dispersion of the eluant when the   Stacked injection (9 consecutive injections)
