Increased Speed of Analysis and Sample Throughput with Kinetex Core-Shell Technology
The introduction of the new Kinetex core-shell technology provides a significant benefit to all separation scientists looking to increase sample throughput by reducing chromatographic analysis times while maintaining chromatographic resolution. This is especially important for QC labs, which typically have limited resources and can benefit the most from faster separations and higher sample throughput, allowing them to make the best use of their limited resources. However, the benefits derived from faster separations are equally important to discovery and method development departments as well.
