ALEXYS Carbohydrate Analyzer

The newly developed SweetSep AEX columns for High Performance Anion Exchange Chromatography (HPAEC) with Pulsed Amperometric Detection (PAD) allow for rapid, high-resolution separations of carbohydrates of a wide variety. The columns have exceptional efficiency with only moderate backpressure. SweetSep columns can be used with any HPAEC and suitable bio-inert HPLC system. For consistent results, ease of use, and highest reproducibility, the ALEXYS Carbohydrate Analyzer is the best choice.

The ALEXYS Carbohydrate Analyzer from Antec Scientific is a metal-free HPLC system optimized for HPAEC-PAD. The electrochemical flow cell (SenCell) has a high pH resistant, maintenance free HyREF reference electrode. It uses solid gold working electrodes with long lifetime and therefore is the most robust solution in the market. The ET210 eluent tray degassing kit for carbonate free mobile phase assures most stable and sensitive analysis conditions. For consistent results and highest reproducibility, day-to-day, user-to-user, and lab-to-lab, the ALEXYS Carbohydrate Analyzer is the best choice!

Applications are available for carbohydrates in food, beverages, biomass and plants, lactose free products and others.

Detection limits as low as 10 nmol/L can be obtained.

HPAEC is considered an environmentally sustainable (“green”) chromatographic technique, as its mobile phase utilizes non-toxic aqueous solutions of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium acetate (NaOAc), eliminating the need for environmentally restrictive solvents.
