Dual-Needle Technology Enhances Speed,
Flexibility
Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE:A) has been honored with an
innovation award from The Analytical Scientist. The magazine
recognized Agilent for its exclusive dual-needle technology, a
breakthrough in the way samples are injected into the company’s
liquid chromatographs, which separate the samples into their
individual parts.
Awards from The Analytical Scientist highlight innovations
delivered by transformative technology. The magazine’s editorial
board, along with a panel of independent experts, chooses the
winners. As one judge put it: “[Agilent’s] innovation looks very
simple, but simply addresses a complex problem.”
Agilent introduced dual-needle technology as part of a new
autosampler for its ultra-high-performance 1290 Infinity II LC
system, which enables scientists to identify and quantify the
individual components in a mixture.
“Dual-needle technology transports LC-autosampler usage to a new
level of efficiency, opening new possibilities to our customers in
their analytical work,” said Dr. Stefan Schuette, Agilent vice
president and general manager of the Liquid Phase Separations
Division.
The award-winning technology provides two sample flow paths
within a single instrument. Having two independent paths means that
during an analytical run, the instrument can prepare the next
sample for fast injection. Smartly overlapping injections reduces
run times—a key concern for many labs.
The technology also gives scientists more flexibility, enabling
them to run a different sample volume on each port without having
to manually change the hardware. Being able to use the same
instrument and calibration simplifies the process, eliminates
variables between different instruments, and reduces errors.
