HPTLC Applicator About

HPTLC Applicator is highly acknowledged in the market for their high performance and durable in nature. The samples were applied in forms of bands on an aluminum TLC plate pre-coated with silica gel and were separated using dichloromethane: methanol: toluene: ammonia solution as the mobile phase. Further, this applicator are developed and validated for determination of sunitibin malate and possible impurities. Apart from this, HPTLC Applicator is simple in design, inexpensive to construct and ideal for applying small volumes of solutions to TLC strips and plates is described.

Precision and Repeatability for Reliable Analysis

Engineered for automated bandwidth or spot application, the HPTLC Applicator guarantees precise and consistent results with a coefficient of variation under 2% for both band area and intensity. Its micro-liter syringe and programmable movement system ensure accurate sample positioning and optimal reproducibility in both qualitative and quantitative thin-layer chromatography processes.

Versatile and User-Friendly Operation

This applicator supports single and multiple sample application modes, letting users adjust band length and width according to experimental needs. Easy operation is enabled by a touchscreen panel and intuitive software interface, while solvent-resistant construction ensures lasting durability. Integrated safety features, such as overload protection and auto-stop, enhance operational reliability.

Seamless Integration and Data Management

With USB connectivity and HPTLC software compatibility, managing your sample data and customizing track programming has never been simpler. The system accommodates up to 12 tracks per run and offers comprehensive plate illumination and an adjustable stage to fit various plate sizes, making it ideal for professionals seeking efficient, high-throughput chromatography workflows.

FAQs of HPTLC Applicator:

Q: How does the HPTLC Applicator ensure precise and reproducible sample application?

A: The HPTLC Applicator features a micro-liter syringe and programmable XYZ movement system, delivering precise positioning (0.1 mm accuracy) and automated, repeatable sample application with less than 2% variation in band area and intensity. This design ensures robust reproducibility for both qualitative and quantitative analyses.

Q: What sample volumes and plate configurations can this applicator handle?

A: The applicator accommodates a wide range of sample volumes, from as low as 10 nL up to 1 mL, all programmable for application. It can prepare up to 12 tracks per plate in a single run and supports TLC/HPTLC plates up to 20 x 20 cm, providing great flexibility for diverse laboratory needs.

Q: When should I use single versus multiple sample application modes?

A: Single application mode is ideal for precise, isolated sample placements or calibration runs, while multiple application mode enables efficient, parallel processing of up to 12 samples per plateperfect for high-throughput analysis, comparative studies, or routine quality control workflows.

Q: Where can this applicator be installed and what power supply does it require?

A: It can be set up in laboratories meeting an operational temperature range of +10C to +40C. The device requires a standard 220 V / 50 Hz power supply, with an optional 110 V variant available upon request.

Q: What is the process for programming and controlling sample application?

A: Users access the intuitive touchscreen control panel or use the USB interface connected to HPTLC software. Through these, you can set sample volumes, define track positions (length and width), and program either single or multiple runs, streamlining the entire sample application process.

Q: How does the applicator benefit laboratory workflows?

A: By automating sample application, the device significantly increases throughput and ensures uniform application, which minimizes experimental variability and maximizes accuracy. Its user-friendly operation and integrated safety features further enhance productivity and instrument protection.

Q: What safety and maintenance features are included?

A: The applicator is equipped with automatic error stop, overload protection, and power surge safeguard to ensure operator safety and equipment longevity. Routine maintenance is simplified with easily replaceable spare syringes, power adapters, and stage holders available from authorized distributors and suppliers in India.
