Analytical Systems

HPLC analysis has become a routine technique in the analytical separation of active ingredients and for assays. HPLC methodology now covers a broad range of techniques including the detection of substances at trace levels. The full power of an HPLC system is best tapped by combining it with an advanced detection system such as a mass spectrometer.
Across Barriers offers a full set of advanced analytical tools ranging from classical pharmacopoeia procedures using HPLC-UV to high-throughput methods for routine assays using LC-MS and LC-MS/MS techniques. The coupling of different chromatographic techniques is a particularly effective means of improving the significance and reliability of chromatographic data.
