COLUMN ORGANIZER
Column Organizer Management Software
The inventory and tracking of columns and identifying what solvents are in an HPLC column are time consuming and challenging tasks for any laboratory within healthcare and life sciences organizations. Lab analysts within the research and or quality control departments must be aware of the packaging material and dimensions of their columns so they can prepare their columns for subsequent analytical procedures to ensure zero carry over or cross-contamination.
HPLC columns are costly and delicate products, which require careful management to achieve maximum performance and longevity. However, a much greater expense is lost analysis time due to continuous diverse use of columns resulting in unnecessary re-equilibration times or random column failure during a sample run.
Novatek’s Column Organizer Management Software is an essential application for tracking and managing all HPLC and GC columns and their activity within an organization’s laboratory environment. Novatek’s integrated Column Organizer Management software handles complete column inventory management providing detailed information on column:
