Price list for CE kits is now available
The price list for the four CE kits for the analysis of ionic liquids (IOLI) by capillary electrophoresis (CE) is now available for download:overview-of-our-services
CE analysis of IOLI EMIM “AlCl4” can be offered now
The CE analyses can now be offered for the IOLI “1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachloroaluminate” (EMIM AlCl4). The four CE electrolyte systems can also be supplied as a CE-Kit. The table with the services can be found here:
ICA IOLI analysis
Analysis of the ionic liquid EMIM AlCl4 using CE
The CE can now also be used to analyze ionic liquids such as 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachloroaluminate (EMIM AlCl4).
The main components EMIM, aluminum and chloride can be determined and the quantification of additives and potential impurities or decomposition products is also possible. Further sample pictures are summarized here:Ionic liquids and CE
Analysis of the glycoforms of Erythropoietin (EPO) using CE
According to PhEur. Monograph 1316, the glycoforms of EPO can be analyzed by capillary electrophoresis. We investigated the effect of sample desalting and the influence of capillary length.
Details of the investigations are summarized on our website: Glycoforms of EPO and CE
successful CE training in September
Full of excitement (nearly 30 kV) we have been waiting for our training participants on 05 September to then run this year’s two-day CE training first in the conference room in the hotel and then in our laboratory. Despite the work-intensive program, there was always room for individual consultation and exchange of experiences. All participants also made active use of the chance to practice cutting and installing capillaries in the cassette. We were very pleased with the open-minded and curious atmosphere and wish all of them much success with CE in their daily work.
And don’t forget: After the training is before the training! We also offer individual solutions for special topics in CE!
Galvanic analysis using CE
We now also offer analyses in the field of surface treatment (e.g. galvanics, electroplating, electropolishing) using Capillary Electrophoresis (CE). A price list with relevant analytes can be found here: https://www.ica-analytik.com/overview-of-our-services/
For example: Analysis of Chrome(VI) and Chrome(III) in a chrome bath
Strawberries and CE
We used the upcoming strawberry season as an opportunity to take a closer look at the ingredients of various strawberries. A total of eight types of strawberries were examined, which differ drastically in weight, shape and color.
The results of our investigations applying capillary electrophoresis (CE) are summarized in a short paper published in Analytik-News (in German): Eine Erdbeere macht noch keinen Sommer
