Science Marketing International has announced the introduction of two new autosamplers, designed to operate with virtually any gas chromatograph, to its range of products
This means that different dimension baskets are manufactured for different dissolution baths ensuring a seamless transition between QLA and the current supplier.
Every QLA basket is manufactured using a sintered mesh.
Sintering is a strengthening process that compresses and heats the mesh under high pressures and temperatures.
This results in welded joins at all the wire overlaps and adds considerable strength and longevity to the basket.
Baskets that are not sintered rely on the initial weaving tension of the cloth for structural strength - but this diminishes during normal use and handling.
Weakened baskets will lose their shape and often fail to comply with the USP specifications.
All QLA baskets are serialised with laser engraving to making it easy to put the same basket back in the same position, ensuring enhanced reproducibility. Request a free brochure from SMI-LabHut ...
