Ion Chromatography

Ion chromatography (IC) systems offer precise separation and quantification of ions in various matrices. These sophisticated instruments utilize ion exchange resins to separate analyte ions based on their charge and affinity, followed by detection using conductivity, amperometry, or other methods. IC workflows support applications like water quality analysis, environmental monitoring, pharmaceutical analysis, and food safety testing, enabling accurate determination of ionic species such as anions, cations, and organic acids. Leading manufacturers of ion chromatography equipment include Thermo Fisher Scientific, Metrohm, and Dionex, offering a range of models like the Thermo Scientific Dionex ICS-6000 and Metrohm 940 Professional IC Vario. This technique complements other analytical methods such as spectroscopy and other types of chromatography, assisting researchers... + More

This technique complements other analytical methods such as spectroscopy and other types of chromatography, assisting researchers and industries in sample characterization and quality control. Ion chromatography systems are valued for their high sensitivity, selectivity, and reproducibility, providing essential data for diverse fields. Whether analyzing trace impurities in pharmaceuticals or monitoring environmental pollutants, IC instruments from industry leaders like Shimadzu and Agilent deliver reliable performance and advanced features, allowing scientists to obtain accurate results for their specific research or analytical needs. ALT offers a selection of pre-owned and refurbished ion chromatography 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, ion chromatography 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
