Shimadzu 228-36998-91 Stainless Steel Microcapillary Tube: Precision for Medical Chromatography
In high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), fluid transfer precision is essential, particularly in medical analyses where the slightest variation can skew a diagnosis or research result. The Shimadzu 228-36998-91 model meets this requirement thanks to its high-quality microcapillary design. It is a stainless steel tube with an outer diameter of 1.6 mm and an inner diameter of only 0.1 mm, with a length of 2 metres.
This microcapillary configuration allows for optimal control of volumes and flow rates, ensuring stability of the mobile phases during chromatographic analyses. This is particularly important in biomedical analysis laboratories where samples are often precious and concentrations are very low. By ensuring a constant and linear flow path, this tubing significantly reduces the risk of dispersion, sample loss or cross-contamination.
The Shimadzu 228-36998-91 tube is designed for perfect compatibility with stainless steel nuts (228-16001-00) and ferrules (228-16000-84) used in the brand's chromatography systems. This standardisation allows for quick integration into existing setups without the need for complex adaptations.
Its stainless steel construction offers excellent resistance to corrosion, pressure and solvents commonly used in medical laboratories. This material also ensures the durability of the assembly, even when used intensively under harsh conditions.
The 228-36998-91 tube is a reliable solution for chromatography installations requiring precision, stability and compatibility with medical analysis systems. It is an essential component in the maintenance or expansion of HPLC equipment for medical or hospital environments.
