Postnova has launched the new TF2000-MALS Series for high resolution separation and characterization of polymers over a wide molar mass range. The award winning instrument (GIT Analytica Innovations Award 2008) allows gentle separation of small, medium and large polymers from 10E3 to 10E9 Da without any stationary phase. Many applications, e.g. starch, have shown that only Thermal FFF can separate these higher molar mass fractions, which are lost in SEC/GPC.

When combined with Multi-Angle Light Scattering, Thermal FFF has the ability to provide absolute and true molar mass distributions, which cannot be achieved with traditional chromatographic methods.

For the first time the Division of Analytical Chemistry of the Swiss Chemcial Society (SCS) offers a FFF Seminar in Zuerich, Switzerland. Dr. Thorsten Klein from Postnova Analytics will conduct this seminar together Dr. Heiner Kern from SCS on April 2nd 2009 at the University Zuerich Irchel.

FFF is an emerging analytical technique for nanotechnology, biopharmaceutical and polymer sciences. This scientific seminar will chronicle the complete history of FFF technology including invention, development, theory, FFF types and applications. The course is a must for everybody who wants to invest one day to acquire the complete basics and a good overview about FFF. Also the course is ideal to discuss what samples systems and applications can be done with FFF.

Recently an additional FFF paper was published in the Swiss magazine Chemie Plus (download pdf). It describes the invention, development, theory and applications of Field Flow Fractionation (FFF). If you want some additional information about the paper: "Feldflussfraktionierung - Trennen von Proteinen, Polymeren und Partikeln", please feel free to contact us at any time.
