Capel®-105 capillary electrophoresis system

High performance capillary electrophoresis. Based on the differential migration of components of aqueous samples within a narrow quartz capillary under the influence of the applied electric field. Separated solutes are quantitatively detected at the capillary outlet by high sensitive optical system based on direct or indirect UV absorbance.

The instrument has all the features of the previous models – liquid cooling of capillary, capability to work using pre-programmed routines. It has an autosampler for 10 inlet and 10 outlet vials that improves repeatability of the results in copmarison with model 103RT with manual sample handling. Due to deuterium lamp and monochromator with a diffraction grating, the instrument can detect signal in the 190-380nm range that makes it a flexible yet not expensive tool for analytical practice.

Capel-105 is operated using built-in touch-pad on the front panel and uses a PC for processing of the results.
