Advances in column technology have led to a renewed interest in supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), which uses a supercritical fluid as mobile phase. Compared to liquid, supercritical fluids have low viscosity and high diffusivity. By combining SFC with Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), which utilizes the high permeability and diffusivity of supercritical fluids, the extraction and analysis of target components from solid samples can be automated. The new analytical technology “Unified Chromatography” improves the analytical workflow by integrating sample extraction, analysis by various separation modes, and high-sensitivity detection.

Awards

2015 R&D magazine Award

The award from R&D magazine recognizes Shimadzu’s Nexera UC system as one of the 100 most technically significant new products of the year in the analytical and testing category.

R&D Magazine chose the Nexera UC system because its fully automated technology opens up new analytical opportunities in many fields, including food products, drug discovery and delivery, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and cleaning validation.
With industry-leading throughput and superior levels of sensitivity, the system eliminates the need for complicated sample pre-treatment and reduces the possibility of human error during analysis.

Features

Higher resolution

The analysis time can be effectively shortened because an excellent chromatographic resolution can be maintained even at higher flow rates than those typically used for HPLC.
Available for Both UHPLC and SFC Analysis Using a Single System

Separation results can be quickly obtained during method development by screening with both SFC and UHPLC.
$Small volume fractionation$

Small volume fractionation

By using a fraction collector, small-volume fractionation is also possible (ex:1.5 mL vials).
Fully automated on-line extraction and purification

Target compounds are extracted from solid samples, and then automatically transferred to SFC.
Nexera UC reduces environmental impact

By using SFC, the consumption of organic solvent is reduced by 94.2%, compared to the normal-phase LC.
