Automated sampling

Taking samples from a reaction at user defined time points in a chemical process allows the elucidation of important kinetic and mechanistic information and provides an instant snap shot of the current state of the process. Sampling can be performed either manually or with an automated system that removes samples at user defined time points often with on-line HPLC. This second approach offer some clear benefits in terms of unattended operation and will be developed as a module for the Lara™ unit in the near future.

Where appropriate, the functionality of the Lara modules can also be achieved using third party equipment. Please contact our technical support team for assistance.
