Spark Holland introduces INTEGRITY™ LC autosampling INTEGRITY™ Resetting the standard in LC autosampling - Advanced wash capabilities to eliminate carryover - Dual independent concentric needle concept - Optimized for UHPLC - Integrated on-line sample prep capabilities - Up to 4 well plates or 216 standard sample vials - Flexible workstation for many liquid handling needs of analytical samples Sample Barcode Identification State-of-the-art injection technology is important, naturally. And rapid sample turn-around time is very helpful, of course. Large sample capacity is very convenient, no doubt....

Micro Injection Proven injection technology perfected Our robust concept of closed line sampling using pressure assisted sample aspiration (PASA™) directly from vial to valve, has proven its reliability in more than 30,000 autosamplers. Simplicity of the concept, the absence of a needle port and a syringe that is never in contact with the sample are the most prominent features contributing to its success. With special attention to handling small samples, carryover and compatibility with UHPLC, INTEGRITY™ now brings this concept to a new level of perfection! Integrated sample prep features Spark...

Mixing variables such as tumbling speed and duration can be programmed. Compared to the syringe aspirate/dispense actions offered by other autosamplers, mixing is much better and faster! Typical applications of this unique feature are internal standard addition, dilution, pre-column derivatization, homogenizing etc. Even in-vial liquid-liquid micro extraction is feasible. HotCap™ - Individual heating of samples and reaction mixtures Cooling helps to maintain sample integrity, but when deliberate changes of samples are required prior to injection, heat is our best help. HotCap™ is a piece of capillary...
