Overview

Characterization of nanoparticles by Field-Flow Fractionation (FFF)
During the past decades, FFF has been applied successfully for the separation, characterization and fractionation of a wide variety of large-size materials, including nanopartcles in food safety applications.

Separation, characterization and fractionation of nearly any macromolecules or nanoparticles
The Postnova modular FFF platform can be configured for any single or combination of several of the five FFF subtechniques - Asymmetric Flow FFF (AF4), Hollow-Fibre Flow FFF (HF5), Electrical FFF (EAF4), Centrifugal FFF CF3) and Thermal FFF (TF3). Because of this flexibility, it can be used for the separation, characterization and fractionation of nearly any macromolecules or nanoparticles. The Postnova platform can be also configurated for Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC or GPC). You can easily switch from FFF to SEC and vice versa. The NovaFFF software takes care of control, data acquisition and calculation.

Postnova AF2000 MT mid temperature MultiFlow FFF system
The system can be configured for Asymmetric Flow Field-Flow Factionation (AF4), Hollow Fiber Flow Field-Flow Factionation (HF5) and Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC).

Postnova CF2000 Centrifugal FFF system
The system can separate and distinguish relative size differences of 5% only and can be used to monitor absolute size differences down to 1 nm. These unique features make it the ideal choice for any nanoparticle research and QC tasks.

Postnova 21-angle MALS detector - the ideal detector for ultra-high molar mass
The Postnova 21-angle MALS detector has been especially developed for coupling with FFF systems – to the opposite of previously available MALS detectors which were designed with chromatography (SEC/GPC) in mind, that is for smaller molar mass.

High sensitivity online Dynamic Light Scattering detector, special customized for use connected to FFF
Online DLS measurements using a special flow cell can be perfomed to obtain particle size (Rh) and molecular weight (Mw) distributions of particles and molecules separated by Postnova Asymmetric Flow FFF (AF4), Centrifugal FFF (CF3) and Thermal FFF (TF3) systems.
