Summary

The Good

It gives really important information that is vital to my experiments. The integrated solvent and sample management features were beneficial for our separations.

The Bad

Regrettably, the HPLC system exhibited persistent faults, requiring two or three attempts before functioning correctly. This unreliability posed a significant challenge in maintaining the precision necessary for our nanoparticle analyses.

The Bottom Line

While the HPLC system holds potential for nanoparticle characterization, our overall experience raises concerns about its reliability. Despite the promised high standards and advanced software functionality, the system consistently fell short of expectations. Considering the critical nature of our research, we recommend exploring alternative HPLC brands for a more dependable solution in similar studies. Our negative encounters may offer valuable insights to fellow users seeking a trustworthy instrument for nanoparticle analyses.
