Refining supercritical fluid chromatography for smarter separation

Discover how supercritical fluid chromatography systems are improving analytical workflows.

Brought to you byDrug Discovery News

Traditional chromatographic workflows can be time-consuming, solvent-intensive, and limited in selectivity. Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) uses CO₂ in its supercritical state as the mobile phase, combining liquid-like solvating power with gas-like diffusivity to overcome these challenges. Laboratories under pressure to accelerate method development while reducing costs and environmental impact need more flexible and efficient solutions.
