By implementing automation, a laboratory can instantly increase throughput, improve accuracy, reproducibility, and lab-to-lab consistency.
Sample preparation has historically been a time-consuming challenge in high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC) analysis, consisting of up to 60% of total analysis time. Automated platformsare now able to perform sample preparation techniques including solid-phase extraction (SPE) and proteinprecipitation. By implementing automation, a laboratory can instantly increase throughput, improve accuracy,reproducibility, and lab-to-lab consistency.
Inside the Laboratory: The Chromatography Laboratory at the University of Rouen
April 18th 2024In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” Pascal Cardinael and Valérie Agasse of the University of Rouen in Mont‑Saint-Aignan, France, discuss their laboratory’s work with miniaturizing gas chromatography (GC) columns and systems to improve on-site air analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
