HIGH PERFORMANCE LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPH

HPLC has contributed to analytical solutions in diverse fields such as Pharmaceuticals, foods,life sciences, environment, forests, etc.

High Performance Liquid Chromatography provides reliable quantitative precision and accuracy along with a high linear dynamic range to aloow determination of API amnd related substances in a single run.A convenient method for sample preparation for solid dosage forms is dispersion in water or aqueous media modified with acetonitrile or methanol. HPLC offersseveral possibilities for separation of chiral molecules into their respective enantiomers. These include precolumn derivatization  to form diastereoisomers. Alternately, specialty columns prepared with cyclodextrins or special chiral moieties as stationary phase may be used. In short HPLC, particularly reverse phase HPLC is the most popular choice for quantitative analysis in the pharmaceutical industry.   

GAS CHROMATOGRAPH

In general, substances that vaporize below 300˚ C (and therefore are stable upto that temperature) can be measured quantatively. The samples are also required to be salt free; they should not contain ions. Very minute amounts of a subatance can be measured, but if it is often required that the sample must be measured in comparison to a sample containing the pure, suspected substance known as a reference standard. In practical courses at colleges, students sometimes get acquainted to the GC by studying the contents of lavender oil or measuring the ethylene that is secreted by Nicotiana benthamiana plants after artificially injuring their leaves. These GC analyse hydrocarbons (C2-C40+).In a typical experiment, a packed column is used to separate the light gases, which are then detected with a TCD. The hydrocarbons are separated  using a capillary column and detected with a FID.

FERMENTOR

A fermentor is the equipment, which provides the proper environment for the growth of a desired organism.It is generally a large vessel in which, the organism may be kept at the required temperature, pH , dissolved oxygen concentration and substrate concentration. Different models of fermentors are available depending upon the necessity. A simple version model contains steam generator, sterilization process devices and agitator. A sophisticated fermentor contains pH regulator, oxygen level regulator, anti-foam device, temperature  controller, etc.   

 MICKEL SHAKER

A thermostatted shaker, as used in biochemistry work. A shaker is a device used in chemistry and biology laboratories to stir liquids. A typical shaker has a table board that oscillates horizontally, powered       by an electric motor. The liquids to be stirred are held in beakers, jars, or Erlenmeyer flasks that are placed over the table; or, sometimes, in test tubes or vials that are nested into holes in the plate. Orbital shakers also exist, that shake the vessel in a circular fashion. Shakers have largely been replaced by magnetic stirrers for many purposes, but are still favoured for some situations, such as those involving large volumes.

COLORIMETER

A colorimeter is a device used in colorimetric. In scientific fields the word generally refers to the device that measures the absorbance of particular wavelengths of light by a specific solution. This device is most commonly used to determine the concentration of a known solute in a given solution by the application of the Beer-Lambert law, which states that the concentration of a solute is proportional to the absorbance.

FLUOROMETER

A fluorometer or fluorimeter is a device used to measure parameters of fluorescence: its intensity and wavelength distribution of emission spectrum after excitation by a certain spectrum of light. These parameters are used to identify the presence and the amount of specific molecules in a medium. Modern fluorometers are capable of detecting fluorescent molecule concentrations as low as 1 part per trillion.Fluorescence analysis can be orders of magnitude more sensitive than other techniques. Applications include chemistry/biochemistry,medicine,environmental monitoring. For instance, they are used to measure chlorophyll fluorescence to investigate plant physiology.

MUFFLE FURNACE

A muffle furnace (sometimes, retort furnace) in historical usage is a furnace in which the subject material is isolated from the fuel and all of the products of combustion including gases and flying ash. After the development of high-temperature electric heating elements and widespread electrification in developed countries, new muffle furnaces quickly moved to electric designs. Today, a muffle furnace is (usually) a front-loading box-type oven or kiln for high-temperature applications such as fusing glass, creating enamel coatings,ceramics and soldering and brazing articles.

AUTOANALYZER

Auto analyzer is an automated analyzer using a special flow technique named "continuous flow analysis (CFA)", invented in 1957 by Leonard Skeggs, PhD and first made by the Technicon Corporation. The first applications were for clinical (medical) analysis. The AutoAnalyzer profoundly changed the character of the chemical testing laboratory by allowing significant increases in the numbers of samples that could be processed. The design based on separating a continuously flowing stream with air bubbles largely reduced slow, clumsy, and error prone manual methods of analysis.

FLAME PHOTOMETRY

Flame photometry is an atomic emission technique which may be regarded as the simplest of atomic spectroscopic methods and is very similar to the flame test which is applied for detection of alkali metals.  Flame photometry is good only for elements that are easily excited and do not require very high temperatures (Na, K, Li, Ca are the most widely determined atoms by this technique).

ELECTRONIC CHEMICAL BALANCE

Electronic Chemical balance is a class of balance designed to measure small mass  in the sub-milligram range. The measuring pan of Chemical balance is inside a transparent enclosure with doors so that dust does not collect and so any air currents in the room do not affect the balance's operation. This enclosure is often called a draft shield.

DIFFERENTIAL CENTRIFUGATION

Differential centrifugation is a common procedure in microbiology and cytology used to separate certain organellesfrom whole cells for further analysis of specific parts of cell. In the process, atissue sample is first homogenisedto break the cell membranes and mix up the cell contents. The homogenate is then subjected to repeated centrifugations, each time removing the pellet and increasing the centrifugal force. Finally, purification may be done through equilibrium sedimentation, and the desired layer is extracted for further analysis.

FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION UNIT

Fractional distillation unit is used in the downstream processing of industrial production of products. It is used for the separation of different compounds in a crude sample extracted during the production  process.

Laminar air flow chamber

Laminar air flow chamber provides a uniform flow of filtered air. This continuous flow of air will prevent settling of particles in the work area. Air borne contamination is avoided in this chamber. Culture transfers and inoculation can be done here.
