High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), formerly referred to as high-pressure liquid chromatography, is a technique in analytical chemistry used to separate, identify, and quantify each component in a mixture. It relies on pumps to pass a pressurized liquid solvent containing the sample mixture through a column filled with a solid adsorbent material. Each component in the sample interacts slightly differently with the adsorbent material, causing different flow rates for the different components and leading to the separation of the components as they flow out of the column.

Key Values
Superior gradient performance and excellent flow rate precision
The Scion 6100 Quaternary pump has a new low-pressure mode called High Frequent Mode (HFM), which utilises a double switching function of proportioning valves. HFM with the high-speed real-time feedback control system greatly suppresses liquid pulsation for superior reproducibility of gradient and retention times.
Excellent injection volume precision and ultra-low carry-over
The newly adopted high-precision syringe drive unit provides excellent injection volume precision. Dead volume in the SCION 6210 Autosampler flow path has been minimised. Syringe washing protocols, and stringent temperature control has resulted in a superior precision autosampler with extremely low carry-over.
