SEATTLE, Washington (May 30, 2006) – Thermo Electron Corporation, world leader in analytical instrumentation, introduces its new AccelaTM High Speed Chromatography System that optimizes 1.9 µM column particle technology. Accela delivers fast, efficient chromatographic separations from conventional to ultra high pressures of up to 15,000 psi. Ready for use as a standalone analytical HPLC or fully integrated LC/MS, Accela enables users to achieve shorter run times with excellent peak symmetry and superior data quality. It features a quaternary pump with the lowest dead volume (65 µL) in the industry, accelerating the gradient to the column. The Accela debuts at the 54th ASMS conference, Washington State Convention and Trade Center, Seattle, Washington, May 28-June 1, 2006. It will be shown at Thermo's hospitality suite held 6:30-9:30 pm during ASMS at Seattle's Westin Hotel Grand Ballroom 1 at 1900 5th Ave.
"Chromatographic separations that used to take 30 or 40 minutes can now be done in only 5 to 10 minutes with sharper, narrower peaks that result in larger peak height responses," says Leo Bonilla, Ph.D., director, Thermo Biomarker Research Initiatives in Mass Spectrometry (BRIMS) Center. "The high speed of the new Accela LC makes it perfectly suited for quantitative work that requires maximum sensitivity and increased throughput."
Accela is designed to meet the analytical needs of LC and LC/MS users working in drug development, discovery, QA/QC, academic and food and beverage laboratories. It seamlessly integrates with Thermo's world-class mass spectrometers for a complete LC/MS solution. The result is a fast and powerful tool engineered to combine precision, accuracy and reliability for improved sample analysis.
