Process - Quality Control
Praksons is fully equipped to meet the challenging new stringent standards to ensure utmost quality outputs:
Agilent GC WITH HEADSPACE
Headspace sampling is an automated addition to conventional GC, which allows for improved contrasting between volatile oils and other components in a given mixture. With a more refined sample, the purity and relative amounts of a particular substance in the mixture can be obtained with greater ease, speed and accuracy.
Agilent HPLC
The high performance, preparative use of Liquid Chromatography isolates known or unknown compounds from a mixture for further study of structure, activity, toxicology, etc. This instrument advances the practice of traditional separation methods, like extraction, distillation or crystallization by using high flow rates and large columns for precise and pure outputs. HPLC can be used for compound analysis, but lacks the sensitivity required to tease out compounds that are structurally very similar. For this reason, our lab defers to more sensitive instrumentation in analyzing the HPLC isolated compounds.
UV Spectrometer
The Agilent Cary 60 UV-Vis spectrophotometer is efficient, accurate and flexible, and is designed to meet both current and future measurement needs.
