Detector identifies analytes with uniform sensitivity.

Press Release Summary:



Low Temperature Evaporative Light Scattering Detector (ELSD-LT) enables user to see all sample components, even semi-volatile compounds, down to high picogram level. Cell design reduces band broadening while single-mode, low-temperature operation optimizes sensitivity for those analytes easily missed due to high evaporation temperatures. Unit is suited to drug discovery, natural products development, combinatorial chemistry, and food and beverage applications.

Low Temperature Evaporative Light Scattering Detector


Shimadzu Scientific Instruments has introduced the new Low Temperature Evaporative Light Scattering Detector (ELSD-LT). This easy-to-operate, universal detector identifies analytes with uniform sensitivity regardless of their spectroscopic properties. It is ideally suited for such applications as drug discovery, natural products development, combinatorial chemistry, and food and beverage. The ELSD-LT will enable you to see all sample components, even semi-volatile compounds, down to the high picogram level.

Shimadzu's new ELSD-LT provides excellent performance during gradients for optimized separations and reduced run times. A unique cell design reduces band broadening to a level similar to UV-Vis detectors while its single mode, low-temperature operation optimizes sensitivity for those analytes easily missed due to high evaporation temperatures.
