The 1290 Infinity III Bio LC System is a UHPLC, binary or quaternary, consisting of biocompatible material for use in biopharma (e.g., critical quality attributes, such as Bio SEC) and other applications utilizing high salt and extreme pH conditions. Biocompatibility ensures the integrity of your biomolecules and robustness of the system.
Engineered for Bio-Inert SeparationsThis system is optimized with bio-inert materials like PEEK, titanium, and ceramics, making it ideal for sensitive bioanalytical separations of proteins and nucleic acids. Reducing metal-induced sample adsorption ensures accurate and reproducible results for biopharmaceutical research.
Flexible Sample Handling and ThroughputAccommodating up to 216 vials or microtiter plates, the autosampler operates across an injection range of 0.1 to 100 L. This flexible capacity caters to high-throughput labs, while the thermostatted compartment ensures sample integrity and precise temperature control from 4C to 70C.
Advanced Detection and Data ManagementThe Agilent 1290 Infinity III Bio LC offers multiple detector options including diode array, UV, fluorescence, and RID. Integrated with Agilent OpenLab CDS, it provides comprehensive data acquisition, streamlined analysis, and robust connectivity for laboratory networks.
FAQ's of Agilent Technologies 1290 Infinity III Bio LC System:
Q: How does the 1290 Infinity III Bio LC System ensure sample integrity during protein and oligonucleotide analysis?
A: The system uses bio-inert materials-PEEK, titanium, and ceramics-to minimize sample interaction with metal surfaces, safeguarding sensitive biomolecules. It also features a thermostatted autosampler and column compartment, maintaining temperatures from 4C to 70C for optimal sample preservation.
Q: What types of detectors are available with this HPLC system and how are they beneficial?
A: You can equip the 1290 Infinity III Bio LC System with diode array, multi-wavelength UV, fluorescence, or refractive index detectors. This diversity allows users to tailor detection sensitivity and selectivity to their specific analytical needs, from protein quantification to fluorescent tagging.
Q: When should I use isocratic versus gradient operation modes with this system?
A: Isocratic mode is best for simple separations with minimal matrix complexity, while gradient operation is preferred for complex mixtures such as multi-component biopharmaceutical samples, allowing for enhanced resolution and efficiency.
Q: Where can this system be effectively integrated within a laboratory environment?
A: Thanks to its compact, modular design (420 mm 600 mm 620 mm, stacked), LAN/USB/RS232 connectivity, and compatibility with Agilent OpenLab CDS, the system can be seamlessly implemented in R&D, QA/QC, or process development labs.
Q: What is the process for automated sample injection?
A: The fully automated thermostatted autosampler can handle injection volumes from 0.1 to 100 L and accommodates up to 216 vials or microtiter plates, enabling unattended, high-throughput sample analysis with minimal carryover.
Q: How does the system support regulatory compliance and data security?
