UPLC System

Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) systems offer superior resolution, sensitivity, and speed compared to traditional HPLC, making them ideal for complex analytical challenges. These advanced systems utilize smaller particle size columns and higher pressures to achieve faster separations and sharper peaks, leading to more accurate and detailed results. UPLC supports various workflows including method development, impurity profiling, and quantitative analysis in pharmaceutical, environmental, food and beverage, and chemical industries. The technology often integrates with other analytical techniques such as mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and various spectroscopic detectors for comprehensive sample characterization. Leading manufacturers like Waters (Acquity UPLC), Agilent (1290 Infinity II), and Thermo Fisher Scientific (Vanquish) offer a range of UPLC systems and accessories to meet diverse... + More

UPLC supports various workflows including method development, impurity profiling, and quantitative analysis in pharmaceutical, environmental, food and beverage, and chemical industries.

Leading manufacturers like Waters (Acquity UPLC), Agilent (1290 Infinity II), and Thermo Fisher Scientific (Vanquish) offer a range of UPLC systems and accessories to meet diverse research needs. UPLC systems are essential tools for chromatographers, chemists, and researchers performing sophisticated separations and analyses. The process involves injecting a sample into a high-pressure liquid stream which passes through a specialized column. The different components within the sample interact with the column material at varying rates, causing them to separate. This separation is then detected and recorded, providing quantitative and qualitative information about the sample's composition. Common applications include drug discovery and development, food safety testing, environmental monitoring, and proteomics research, leveraging techniques such as reversed-phase chromatography, hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC), and ion-exchange chromatography. UPLC's enhanced performance facilitates faster analysis times, higher throughput, and reduced solvent consumption, ultimately improving laboratory efficiency and cost-effectiveness. ALT offers a selection of pre-owned and refurbished UPLC systems, each backed by a standard 90-day warranty that can be upgraded to a three-year warranty, along with ALT's lifetime support. Because they're refurbished, UPLC systems from ALT are typically priced 50%-80% lower than the cost of new instruments, helping labs stretch their budget further without compromising on quality. - Less
