Solving One of Chromatography’s Biggest Dilemma — Proper Sealing of Chromatography Autosamper Vials — Using the Advanced Vial Closure System (AVCS)
Thursday, June 6, 2013
8:00 am PDT/ 11:00 am EDT/ 16:00 BST/ 17:00 CEDT.
This web seminar will review the impact an innovative vial & closure design, like AVCS, can have on improving data quality by providing data that supports how an AVCS-designed vial & closure eliminates under and over compression of vial seals while improving robotic autosampler pick-up of vials, ensuring more centered vial closure positioning and greater optical recognition of vials placed in autosamplers.
