Features Header
Tough metal-sensitive compounds? Not anymore.
Non-specific adsorption of metal-sensitive compounds is an unpredictable challenge, leading to long system passivation times, chromatography with large RSDs, and broad peaks that can be a challenge to detect. The ACQUITY Premier System is built with proven ACQUITY technology, which offers true UPLC performance, ultra-low dispersion, and high resolution.
Designed with MaxPeak HPS Technology, the ACQUITY Premier System improves peak shape and reproducibility for the most challenging metal-sensitive compounds.
Boost method efficiency with UPLC technology
Take your methods to the next performance level by leveraging the benefits of Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) technology to improve your existing HPLC methods. By scaling your methods to UPLC, your laboratory will benefit from the combination of increased resolution, sensitivity, and speed that comes with modern small-particle chemistries.
Along with fast UPLC analysis times, the ACQUITY Premier System reduces the need for system passivation to optimize assays for metal-sensitive compounds. Take your assays to the next level of efficiency, not only with faster analysis times, but also reduced system downtime, decreased reagent costs, and, ultimately, improved lab productivity.
Power up recovery and sensitivity
The ACQUITY Premier System minimizes metal-sensitive analyte loss, improving recovery and limits of detection. Couple the ACQUITY Premier System with a Waters mass spectrometer to confidently identify and quantify unknown compounds in complex samples and confirm trace components at the lowest possible levels.
Reproducible results with a reliable partner
The ACQUITY Premier System and ACQUITY Premier Columns are holistically designed to reduce analyte losses and improve repeatability for a diversity of metal-sensitive analytes that interact with metal surfaces in conventional LC technology.
