The increasing sensitivity of analytical techniques such as UHPLC, LC-MS or LC-MS/MS requires scientists to use specifically adapted reagents. The LC-Pak® Polisher answers this need by further purifying ultrapure water to make it suitable for critical organic molecule analysis at trace and ultra-trace levels.
The LC-Pak® is designed to be connected to the outlet of ultrapure water equipment, in particular, the Q-POD® dispenser of Milli-Q® systems and is warranted to deliver at least 500 liters. To ensure ultra-trace organic levels are reached, the LC-Pak® technology is based on the proven C18 reverse-phase silica purification media.
The granular C18 reverse-phase silica in the polypropylene housing is tightly packed by a compression disc to avoid any channeling effect. This ensures that the water passing through the LC-Pak® is in close contact with the C18 chains binding organic molecules by hydrophobic interactions.
As a result, the now improved water quality is perfectly suitable for the production of mobile phase, buffers, blanks, standards preparation, sample dilution, glassware rinsing or extraction used in these critical applications. Each LC-Pak® Polisher is delivered with its Certificate of Quality.
