The LA8080 amino acid analyzer by Hitachi combines the robustness and quality of Hitachi LC products with the performance of a post-column ninhydrin application. These instruments are used for a wide range of purposes - from measuring umami components of foodstuffs or the active ingredients in health supplements, to quality control for biopharmaceutical products. Based on components of Hitachi HPLC instruments the new bench top design enables gives scientists new possibilities in their analysis workflow. Moreover, the new design occupies 30% less surface area than its predecessors.
- Optimized for post-column ninhydrin reaction
- Reduced footprint (30%)
- Improved accessibility for daily task
- Highest safety functionality with improved leak sensor positioning
Like previous instruments, such as the L-8800 and L-8900, LA8080 is designed to support many types of ion-exchange chromatography analysis methods. High stability ninhydrin reactions ensure high precision in analyses of protein hydrolysate and physiological fluid.
It is available as full package with Agilent Openlab CDS (Chromatography Data Software) and Openlab CDS Plus for usage in all kind of analytical and regulated labs.
