Preparing your Lab for the holiday season

The holiday season is approaching, and you are planning to switch off your lab? We have you covered!

Join our webinar and learn some easy protocols to prepare your analytical instruments to be switched off and some best practices around HPLC columns conditioning, so that you can start up again with maximum productivity.

Live from our demo lab in Milano, we will show you how to manage the following instruments:

• 1260/1290 Infinity II LC
• LCMS Single Quad, Triple Quad and QTOF

Not all laboratories and not all instruments need a complete switch off, we will provide you a compass to find the right directions for your lab.

As a second part we will provide a comprehensive summary on how to protect your HPLC columns from early failure, clogging and performance loss and we will cover key tips and tricks to maximize your columns lifetime.
