摘要:
L'invention concerne une nouvelle matière de séparation en polybutadiène stable formant une couche et réticulé sur une surface de particules de support en oxyde/hydroxyde de métal de forme sphérique comprenant des cristaux d'oxyde/hydroxyde de métal, les cristaux s'étendant radialement à l'extérieur d'une région noyau centrale et ayant une forme pouvant être aciculaire à lamellaire. Une matière de remplissage chromatographique permettant de procéder à une chromatographie HPLC dans la phase inverse du polybutadiène déposé en couche sur de l'oxyde d'aluminium, selon l'invention, permet d'obtenir des crêtes chromatographiques hautement symétriques.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for sealing cartridges (24) used in liquid chromatography. Such cartridges (24) are commonly filled with media beds (28) that are bounded axially by porous plates (30). The invention involves one or two sealing heads (2). Each sealing head (2) includes two slidably connected head pieces (4, 18) and an elastomeric sealing member (22). The head pieces (4, 18) and the elastomeric sealing member (22) are sized to slide easily into an open end of a cartridge (24) when the elastomeric sealing member (22) is uncompressed. After insertion, relative movement of the head pieces (4, 18) compresses the elastomeric sealing member (22) and causes the elastomeric sealing member (22) to expand laterally so that it forms a seal against the cartridge (24), when the sealing head (2) is pressed against the media (28) or porous plate (30). An alternate sealing head comprises a plurality of head pieces and a plurality of annular sealing members. One of the head pieces contains a body portion on which the other head pieces and the sealing members are slidably mounted.

A chromatography cartridge assembly includes a cartridge and first (40) and second end caps (42). A wall of the cartridge (22) defines a chamber (82) for containing chromatography media. The end caps define inlet (62) and outlet passages (66), respectively, for flow of process fluid. The first end cap defines flow distributor passages (100) for distributing process fluid across a cross-sectional area of the chamber, and the second end cap defines flow collector passages (104) for collecting process fluid from across a cross-sectional area of the chamber. A clamp is circumferentially located about the cartridge wall for applying a radial load through the wall to the first end cap to fix the first end cap in a desired position.
摘要:
A chromatography system (10) including a chromatography column (18) connected to receive a sample and separate different compounds in the sample, a flow-through detector (10) that outputs a signal indicating the presence of compounds in the sample leaving the column (18), a fraction collector (22) that directs fractions of the sample from the column (18) to separate fraction wells (26), and an electronic controller (28) that receives inputs from the detector (10) and controls the fraction collector (22). The electronic controller (28) monitors the signal from the detector (10) over time and initiates a cut from one well (26) to another at the fraction collector (22) when the signal over time experiences a shoulder where the slope of the signal over time does not change in sign but does change by more than a predetermined amount.

The invention includes novel separations material of stable polybutadiene coated and cross-linked on a surface of generally spherical metal oxide/hydroxide support particles comprising crystals of metal oxide/hydroxide with the crystals extending radially outward from a central core region and having a shape selected from principally acicular to principally lamellar. A chromatographic packing material for performing high performance liquid chromatography in the reverse phase of polybutadiene coated on alumina in accordance with the present invention provides highly symmetrical chromatographic peaks.

摘要:
Apparatus for simultaneously supplying a solvent to a plurality of chromatography columns (12) using a plurality of pumps (14A-14L). Each pump (14A-14L) has a chamber (16) with movable solvent piston therein and inflow and outflow valves. The outflow valve of each pump (14A-14L) is connected to a respective chromatography column (12). The solvent pistons are simultaneously moved in one direction to pull solvent into respective chambers (16) until all pistons have achieved an adjustable stop position corresponding to a desired delivery volume. The solvent pistons are then simultaneously moved in the opposite direction to deliver solvent to the respective columns (12) until all pistons have delivered the desired delivery volumes. The solvent pistons are driven by a common pneumatic or hydraulic system.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for sealing a plurality of columns (12) containing media (14) for use in liquid chromatography. The invention involves two sealing assemblies (18, 20), each having a plurality of sealing heads (22). The sealing heads (22) are sized to receive ends of the columns (12) and to seal the columns (12) when the heads (12) are compressed. Compressive force is exerted by or through springs (44) to permit the sealing heads (22) to adapt to the length of the media bed (14) within each column (12). The apparatus may include a pressure containment vessel (10) for subjecting the columns (12) to radial compression.
摘要:
A chromatography cartridge assembly (12) includes a cartridge (22) with flexible wall defining a chamber, and porous, polymeric, hydrophilic, chromatography media contained within the chamber. The chromatography media have an operating pressure greater than 3 bars. The flexible wall has a moving diaphragm for compressing the chromatography media. The chromatography cartridge assembly (12) includes a flow distributor, flow collector, and sieves formed from a hydrophilic material. A compression module (20) defines a pressure chamber for containing a pressurized fluid. The pressurized fluid acts to move the flexible wall of the cartridge assembly (12). The compression module (20) has a pressure rating greater than 3 bars.
