Comparing ELSDs from different manufacturers is a difficult and involved process.  Each design has unique benefits and disadvantages, so no single test can completely do the job.  However, time and time again, our customers have told us that they get the best results with SofTA products.

 

 At SofTA, we have designed a very flexible instrument configuration that yields real advantages in many common HPLC applications.  One unique SofTA advantage is the ability to optimize for gradient operation.  This is possible because we can smoothly vary the vapor phase split ratio with our Thermo-Split technology.

 

The following data was customer generated during a comparative demonstration.  The customer had recently changed from brand “S” to brand “P” over the issue of sensitivity.  We were invited to run a battery of 10 tests versus their new ELSDs.  For all analytes and conditions tested, SofTA out-performed the competition.
