Major Products/Services

-Flex-A-PAL, Flexar™ UHPLC with new PAL-xt: can switch from UHPLC column to HPLC column unattended, for fast, near-zero carryover, reliable automation.

-CombiPAL: multipurpose autosampler, with ITEX combines direct-liquid-injection, static-headspace, SPME, and thermal desorption. Now powered by Chronos Software.

-Falcon Fast Micro GC: matches the speed of the PAL to get samples analyzed quicker with fewer GCs and less power and gas consumption. This one small GC does the work of three.

-Chronos: powerful, easy to install and use sample management software.

-H/D-X PAL™ : Provides an automated process for scheduling and performing label experiments for hydrogen deuterium exchange, followed by direct injection to the LC–MS.

-Collect PAL: features no-loss collection into covered microtiter plates that can be stored in a cooled holder; up to 24 micro plates; used for profiling radio-labeled compounds; short fraction intervals from 3.5 s to 15 s.

-Purific System: large bed fraction collector suitable for production type purifications; open-access approach keeps the system running without interruptions between batches; screen and output file option precisely tracks all the fractions; can be run off a UV or UV and MS triggered peak system with PEAK Harvester software. The Mini-Purific version fits into a fume hood.

-WorkStations: Small stand-alone workstations for repetitive liquid handling steps with mixing, heating, extracting, and weighing.
