Since the shortage in the supply of acetonitrile (ACN) began in late 2008, HPLC users suffer under more and more purchasing problems and higher costs. With our Eluent Savings Handbook we give you a range of practical tips and suggestions to help you deal with the acetonitrile shortage. Act now: Our Eluent Savings Handbook offers specific solutions for saving solvent, which will not only reduce the amount of HPLC eluents you use, but also benefit the environment by reducing waste. Learn more about how to save eluent by slimming methods, by UHPLC, by substitution and more.
