Detection of different types of molecules in a liquid mixture is a key step in various processes, ranging from pharmaceutical drug development to food production. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is one of the most effective methods for such applications, providing fast, precise and versatile operation.
In the course of HPLC procedures, ensuring the precise mixing of the mobile phase and the sample is essential. This task becomes particularly challenging in cases of pump leakage or high-pressure conditions within the column. Additionally, the gradual wear of valves and pumps over time poses a threat to the instrument’s overall health, leading to unforeseen downtime and the loss of valuable samples.
