[On-Demand Webinar] Improving Data Quality and Operational Efficiency with Low Adsorption LC - Welcome to a New Era of Chromatography -

Solving non-specific sample adsorption! Improved peak shape and sensitivity with new technology, featuring low adsorption and bio-inert LC with excellent reproducibility and durability.

The ACQUITY Premier system incorporates the new MaxPeak High Performance Surfaces (HPS) technology, which effectively reduces sample loss due to nonspecific adsorption caused by interactions with metals, while providing the following benefits: ■ Ideal for the analysis of organic acids, organophosphates, oligonucleotides, peptides, glycoproteins, phospholipids, veterinary drugs, chelating agents, and more. ■ Improved sensitivity and reduced risk of peak omission. ■ Elimination of column and system passivation and conditioning, saving time and costs. ■ Enhanced reproducibility and reliability of results. A variety of low-adsorption columns featuring MaxPeak High Performance Surfaces (HPS) technology are also available. When used in combination with the system, they enable more reliable analyses. *We also offer online briefings and demonstrations, so please feel free to contact us.

• Analytical Equipment and Devices

Effectively reduce non-specific adsorption (NSA) of compounds that easily adsorb to metals, providing excellent durability and consistency over a long period.

This is a low-adsorption column that employs MaxPeak HPS technology, which minimizes the interaction between the analyte and column hardware (column tube) that can cause sample loss, thereby improving the recovery rate, sensitivity, and reproducibility of the analyte. MaxPeak HPS technology is an advanced surface treatment technology rather than a resin coating. It is designed to withstand the rigorous conditions of high-throughput laboratories, providing excellent performance that lasts without compromise. 【Features】 - Reduces the effort and time required for column conditioning and passivation - Improves sensitivity and peak shape - Allows analysis with a simpler mobile phase that does not contain complex additives - Saves time in method development - Reduces risk and enhances reliability in data and decision-making - A lineup compatible with all LC systems including UPLC/UHPLC/HPLC

This webinar will focus on Restek's newly announced GC column "RMX Series," explaining the analytical performance achieved through the latest passivation treatment technology and approaches to solving challenges in sample analysis that includes complex matrices. We will introduce the unique features of the new column format specific to the RMX Series and practical points for trace analysis, along with analysis examples using actual samples. We will also concretely present the applicability to routine analysis through actual case studies using the RMX Series. (External speaker: Mr. Eduardo from Weck Laboratories / Japanese dubbing) What you will learn in this webinar: - The features of the advanced passivation treatment technology adopted in the RMX Series GC columns and its analytical advantages. - The concepts for achieving high-sensitivity analysis at trace levels for a wide range of components, including acidic, basic, and neutral compounds. - Common challenges faced in complex sample analysis and solution approaches utilizing the RMX Series. - How selecting the optimal GC column format, including the RMX Series, can lead to improvements in analytical efficiency and lab operations.

[Speaker] Shogo Yakame, Expert Consultant, Urban Innovation Consulting Department, Nomura Research Institute, Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] In recent years, the space business has garnered significant attention both domestically and internationally. In particular, a new large fund, the "Space Strategy Fund," has been launched in Japan, and the space industry has been selected as one of the 17 key investment areas highlighted by the new administration under Prime Minister Takaichi. In light of these developments, the movement for new entrants into the space business is accelerating; however, voices expressing difficulties in launching and promoting new businesses due to the complexity of the industry structure, high entry barriers, and the current immaturity of the market are not uncommon. This lecture will specifically address the mindset when entering the space business from other industries, as well as the challenges that are likely to be encountered, explaining how to perceive and engage with the space business. [Lecture Items] 1. Overview of recent space business 2. Case studies of new entrants from other industries 3. Understanding the space business as a new venture 4. Challenges and points to consider in business planning and promotion 5. Summary 6. Q&A and exchange of opinions with participants / Business card exchange

[Speaker] Director Yuya Sato, Innovation Management Co., Ltd. [Purpose] Even in today's highly uncertain environment, the fact remains that research and development investments aimed at the future continue to be a source of competitive advantage for companies. By envisioning a desired future based on future hypotheses, we can translate that vision into actionable plans and adapt them flexibly to changes in the environment. To make effective research and development investments, it is necessary to execute this entire series of processes at a high level, and the roadmap is positioned as a management tool that supports this. In this seminar, based on approximately 15 years of consulting experience in formulating and executing technology strategies in the manufacturing industry, including the automotive sector, we will introduce specific methods and case studies on the development and effective use of technology roadmaps. The case studies will also explain the examination processes using generative AI, which has been increasingly utilized in recent years. Additionally, we will discuss the challenges many companies face in implementing and operating roadmaps, as well as solutions to those challenges.
