DIVISION IC

Method Overview

Ion Chromatography (IC) is a powerful analytical technique used for the separation and quantification of ions and polar molecules in aqueous solutions. It is indispensable for environmental monitoring, food and beverage safety, pharmaceutical analysis, and industrial quality control.

The DIVISION IC series offers a versatile, high-performance platform that integrates the latest advancements in ion chromatography, providing laboratories with reliable, sensitive, and compliant solutions for a wide array of ionic analyses.

DIVISION IC

The DIVISION IC series represents a new generation of flexible and high-performance ion chromatographs. Available in both modular and integrated benchtop designs, these systems provide exceptional adaptability, extended functionality, and simplified operation for routine and advanced applications.

Key Features & Technological Capabilities:

  • Reagent-Free Ion Chromatography (RFIC): Eliminates the need for manual eluent preparation, enhancing reproducibility and ease of use.

  • Two-Dimensional Chromatography: Enables complex separations and improved resolution for challenging matrices.

  • Trace Analysis: Features automatic preconcentration for the determination of ultra-low level ions.

  • Dual-Channel Simultaneous Analysis: Allows for the determination of both cations and anions from a single sample injection in one run.

  • Advanced Detection: Supports highly sensitive determination of cyanides, sulfides, and hydrazines using pulsed amperometric detection (PAD).

  • Specialized Methods: Capable of analyzing mobile heavy metal forms, direct determination of amino acids without derivatization, high-sensitivity carbohydrate analysis, and catecholamine profiling.

Application Examples:

  1. Trace Analysis of Bromate and Chlorate in Bottled Water: Reliably detects and quantifies disinfection by-products at µg/L levels, crucial for beverage safety (see Fig. 1).

  2. Direct Determination of Cyanide in Drinking Water: Utilizes IC-PAD for a fast, accurate, and interference-free method to monitor cyanide levels well below the regulatory limit of 200 µg/L (see Fig. 2).
