MultiGram III SFC ships to two pharma
majors
Mettler Toledo announces initial shipments of the MultiGram III preparative SFC to two major pharmaceutical manufacturers in North America
Using Berger SFC patented technology, the MultiGram III increases throughput of chiral and achiral purifications by three to ten times over HPLC, while offering equivalent resolution and enhanced selectivity "As the only dedicated supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) instrument company, we made a concerted effort to listen to the feedback provided by our end users, and this product is a direct result", commented Dave Wetherell, SFC marketing manager, Mettler Toledo

Offering flow rates of up to 400ml per minute, the MultiGram III thereby accommodates an expanded range of high capacity preparative columns ideal for large scale purification.
The MultiGram III allows the collection of automated sample fractions in four selectable volume containers with capacities from one litre 20 litres, and includes two 20 litre solvent reservoirs as well as intrapeak collections into two to ten litre vessels.
Selectable peak detection parameters provide the use of time windows, threshold, and slope, or a combination of all three parameters, enabling time-based yields of more than 95%, and an output of up to 30 grams per hour for each peak. Request a free brochure from Mettler Toledo ...
