Precise fully automatic sample application for Planar Chromatography
Automatic Application of Solutions onto any Planar Medium
he ATS 4 (Automatic TLC Sampler 4) offers fully automatic high-precision sample application for qualitative and quantitative analyses, screening and high-throughput analyses as well as for preparative separations, increasing productivity and saving on labour costs. It is suited for routine use and high sample throughput in mass analysis.
The ATS 4 meets all the requirements expected for its purpose: precision, robustness and convenient handling.
- In addition to normal contact techniques, the ATS 4 can be used automatically without contact behind closed doors, facilitating analysis of dangerous substances such as toxic solutions, contaminated samples or radioactive compounds.
- Supports application onto a range of objects of variable thickness (up to 4 mm) – e.g. conventional TLC and HPTLC layers on glass plates or sheets, foil, preparative layers, and very thin objects such as membranes – up to 20 x 20 cm. without any adjustment to the spray nozzle.
- Computer-controlled by the winCATS Planar Chromatography Manager which handles all data input, monitoring and storage for subsequent analysis. Operation in standalone mode is also supported with up to 6 stored application methods.
- Application in the form of spots, bands, or rectangles to meet varying needs
- Syringes available in 10, 25 or 100 µl sizes with fixed or detachable needles
- Optional heated spray nozzle to eliminate the zone broadening with large volumes or solvents of low volatility
- Unique free-mode application
- Applied for overspotting and batch dosages
- Equipped with 66*2ml standard sample vials or 96 microtiter plate, held in exchangeable sample rack
- Self-qualification feature checks for specification compliance at user-determined intervals
- Compliant with the requirements of GLP / cGMP and 21 CFR Part 11
