Shimadzu, HORIBA release LC-Raman System for multi-R&D applications

Shimadzu Corporation and HORIBA have released a new LC-Raman system that combines a Shimadzu highperformance liquid chromatography

(HPLC) with a

HORIBA Raman spectrometer for the Japanese domestic market. The product is the result of joint development work that started in August 2020 and represents the world’s first system to combine these technologies. Combining LC separation technology with Raman visualisation technology not only significantly increases measurement accuracy and efficiency, but it is also expected to offer new measurement value by detecting unknown components. Markets involved in ensuring the safety and health of people, such as healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and life sciences, and markets involved in developing advanced materials, have been changing at a rapid pace in recent years. For research and development in such fields, it is important to have measuring methods that are as accurate and efficient as possible.
