Gefahr erkannt, Gefahr gebannt
Der Feind peristaltischer Pumpen sind Gasblasen. Welchen Einfluss gelöstes und ungelöstes Gas auf die Leistung dieser Pumpen hat und damit auf HPLC, GPC & Co. und was sich dagegen unternehmen lässt, erfahren Sie in diesem Beitrag.

Studying the Impact of Dissolved and Undissolved Gas on the Performance of Peristaltic Pumps
Peristaltic pumps are fluid delivery tools widely used in laboratory techniques including HPLC, GPC/SEC, Flow Chemistry and Liquid Dosing. It is widely acknowledged that dissolved gas can have an impact on the performance of peristaltic pumps. A common solution to address this problem with HPLC systems, is to utilise a vacuum degasser on the inlet side of the pump.

Creating a better differential viscometer
Used as a GPC/SEC detector to determine the specific viscosity of a polymer or protein in solution - differential viscometers have been around for decades and have demonstrated their value in numerous applications. The R&D team at TESTA Analytical has improved the original 4-capillary bridge design and created a new generation differential viscometer with exceptional performance and operational advantages.

Investigating Variation in Flow from Peristaltic Pumps
With peristaltic pumps, several flow paths can be operated simultaneously. However, many parameters influence the actual flow rate in each channel. Accurate determination of the individual flow rate in the individual channels is crucial for reproducible results.

Investigating Variation in Flow from Peristaltic Pumps
Peristaltic pumps find wide application in modern labs, they are considered inexpensive, easy to use and to maintain and, most important of all, are extremely reliable and flexible. The range of application is huge, from simple transfer of a liquid from one container to another in HPLC and Ion chromatographs, to more complex usage as dispensing tools for reagents in flow chemistry.

The Importance of Understanding Pump Flow
Pumps are one of the most common tools enabling liquids to be moved, delivered, pushed through a separation column, supplied as a dose or transferred from one container to another. Several different pumping technologies are available to choose from, depending on your application or problem. As you might expect - a pump designed to pump crude oil through a pipeline has very different requirements compared to a pump designed to deliver a constant stream of medication into a patient's vein. As such, the term ‘flow’ can be interpreted very differently, depending on the context.
