Convergence chromatography. A new category of separation science.

The ultimate selectivity tool.
With convergence chromatography (CC), there are unlimited combinations of solvent and stationary phase selectivity. The primary mobile phase of supercritical CO₂ utilized in CC is miscible with all organic solvents. In addition, any typical RP or NP stationary phase can be used, considerably expanding the selectivity space.

Dramatically streamline workflow in your laboratory
Customers often cite sample preparation as the area in most need of improvement in efforts to improve workflow, save time and reduce operating costs. Independent of the sample preparation technique being used, most matrices will respond best, and therefore will be more soluble in, an organic phase. In efforts to make that sample ready for analysis, the high organic extract must often be evaporated and reconstituted, which are the most lengthy and time-consuming sample preparation steps.

In comparison to other chromatographic techniques, the ACQUITY UPC² System dramatically streamlines the entire workflow of sample analysis, due to its ability to directly inject high organic extracts that result from a majority of sample preparation techniques, effectively eliminating the most time-consuming steps of preparing a sample.

Built upon proven UPLC™ technology
The exceptional reliability, robustness, sensitivity and throughput of the ACQUITY UPC² System can be attributed to its roots within the ACQUITY UPLC Technology platform. Specifically designed to manage mixtures of compressed CO₂ and organic modifiers, the ultra-low dispersion ACQUITY UPC² System is in a class all of its own. With unparalleled selectivity choice through column and mobile phase selection, the ACQUITY UPC² System is the ultimate solution for making the complex, routine.
