NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS
In January 2012 GE Healthcare announced the discontinuation of the HPLC, TLC and Bulk Media product ranges.
We are committed to supplying customers at 2011 order volumes thought-out 2012; the date for last orders on the products listed above April 16th 2012  

Features and benefits

  • Highly reflective surface minimizes background noise while scanning
  • Superior organic binder prevents surface deterioration even when using the strongest reagent
  • Uniform particle size and distribution add to efficiency by reducing band spreading
  • The 60Å pore, 450 m2/g surface area provides optimum characteristics for most clinical, educational and general analytical applications. Fast development of spots with excellent resolution makes the Diamond Series plates very suitable for screening and toxicology work. They are ideal for the analysis of micro samples.

The plates will withstand most solvent systems and any applied developing reagent without silica falling off the plate or reacting with reagents. They can be charred to 180°C with cupric acetate/phosphoric acid reagents.

Because 85% of all TLC users employ fluorescent plates, Diamond Series offers the best for UV quenching and visual work. All plates are silica gel with UV-254 fluorescent indicator and are available with channeling and a linear preadsorbent spotting area for faster, more accurate sample application.
