Cohesive Technologies Inc. Announces the Transcend(TM) System For Online Sample Preparation And Ultra Fast Chromatography

BOSTON, May 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Cohesive Technologies announced today that it has further expanded its instrument product line to include the Transcend Series High Turbulence Liquid Chromatography (HTLC) Systems, which combine the power of online sample preparation -- using Cohesive’s patented TurboFlow(R) technology -- with the speed of ultra chromatography to significantly save time and speed analysis.

Cohesive’s Transcend Systems are the first liquid chromatography (LC) systems that unite the ability to perform online sample extractions with the power and resolution of ultra chromatography. These combined capabilities allow chromatographers to eliminate sample preparation and minimize ion suppression, while providing faster analysis and better resolution. As a result, customers are able to get better data faster by obtaining hundreds of more injections.

In addition to eliminating sample preparation and providing faster analysis, Cohesive’s Transcend Systems give chromatographers the flexibility to perform turbulent flow chromatography, Cohesive’s patented online extraction technology, as well as the ability to run existing LC methods all on one system, which is unique to the market. This configuration allows users of the system to switch back and forth between online extraction methods and conventional LC methods simply by selecting the method in Cohesive’s Aria software. Cohesive’s Transcend Systems are also available as multiplexed systems, which are independent, parallel, multi-channel systems that enable you to more than double the number of samples analyzed by one mass spectrometer. The flexible platform of Cohesive’s Transcend Systems give chromatographers the ability to solve many bioanalytical challenges.

John Brann, Vice President, Instrumentation, explains, “Ultra chromatography has been very effective in improving resolution and reducing analysis time, but until now the technology has been constrained by the need for complex sample preparation and short column lifetime. The Transcend System overcomes both of these limitations and offers a best of both worlds solution.”

Cohesive Technologies Inc. develops, manufactures, and markets novel online extraction and liquid chromatography systems and chemistries for the drug discovery, development, and clinical marketplace. These products have made Cohesive a leader in developing new technology tools that accelerate high throughput analysis and improve MS performance for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, clinical diagnostic, and environmental markets.
