Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD: Comprehensive UV-Visible Analysis Across Key Industries

If your laboratory requires absolute confidence in peak identification and spectral purity without the premium price tag of brand-new instrumentation, the Agilent 1100 HPLC system equipped with a Diode Array Detector (DAD) delivers the ultimate cost-effective solution. Driven by a robust Agilent 1100 Quaternary Pump, this system provides automated blending of up to four mobile phases at flow rates up to 10 mL/min, ensuring exceptional gradient accuracy and stable retention times for complex separations. The advanced Diode Array Detector offers full-spectrum UV-Vis acquisition spanning 190 to 950 nm, allowing you to capture complete absorbance spectra simultaneously and verify peak purity in a single analytical run. It is an industry-standard, rugged workhorse perfectly optimized for pharmaceutical impurity profiling, environmental pesticide screening, and food safety testing laboratories demanding regulatory compliance and rapid method development.

Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD and QuatPump: Refurbished System Benefits and Pricing

The Agilent 1100 HPLC System with a Diode Array Detector (DAD) and Quaternary Pump provides a dependable and cost-effective liquid chromatography solution for environmental, pharmaceutical, food safety, chemical, and research laboratories. Certified refurbished systems typically range from approximately $11,000 to $16,500, offering substantial savings compared to comparable new systems, such as an Agilent 1260 Infinity II LC with a Quaternary Pump and DAD, which commonly range from approximately $32,000 to $45,000 depending on configuration, software, and accessory options. In addition to the initial acquisition cost, laboratories should consider ongoing operational expenses, including HPLC columns, solvents, mobile phase preparation, pump seals, check valves, autosampler maintenance, deuterium lamp replacement, calibration standards, software support, preventive maintenance, and compliance-related qualification services. Long-term ownership costs remain manageable due to the proven durability of the Agilent 1100 platform, readily available replacement parts, and straightforward maintenance requirements. Purchasing a certified refurbished Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD and Quaternary Pump allows laboratories to significantly reduce capital expenditures while benefiting from flexible gradient capabilities, full-spectrum UV-Vis detection, reliable chromatographic performance, and proven analytical accuracy for applications such as pharmaceutical analysis, environmental monitoring, food testing, pesticide analysis, and routine quality control workflows.

EPA Method 8315A: Determination of Carbonyl Compounds Using Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD and QuatPump

The Agilent 1100 HPLC System with a Diode Array Detector (DAD) and Quaternary Pump is well-suited for EPA Method 8315A, which determines aldehydes and ketones after derivatization with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) and subsequent HPLC analysis. The Agilent 1100 delivers reliable chromatographic separation of DNPH-carbonyl derivatives, including formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein, and other target carbonyl compounds commonly monitored in environmental and air quality studies. The DAD provides multi-wavelength detection and full spectral acquisition, enabling both accurate quantitation and spectral confirmation of analytes, which enhances confidence in compound identification and data quality. The Quaternary Pump offers precise solvent blending and gradient control, supporting optimized separations and consistent method performance across complex sample matrices. Environmental laboratories benefit from excellent retention time reproducibility, dependable quantitative accuracy, and robust long-term operation for routine regulatory testing and monitoring programs. Combined with proven Agilent reliability, flexible method development capabilities, and comprehensive spectral analysis functionality, the Agilent 1100 HPLC with DAD and Quaternary Pump provides an effective platform for EPA Method 8315A carbonyl compound analysis in environmental, industrial hygiene, and air quality applications.
