Since 1983 Shimadzu – Spinco have been in the forefront of HPLC systems, providing state-of- the-art instrumentation coupled with world-class support. With a milestone of >30,000 installations across various labs in India, Shimadzu HPLCs simplify sample preparations, automate continuous analysis and allow monitoring of analytical runs remotely. New liquid chromatography workflows offer greater flexibility and peace of mind. Industry-leading features such as ultra-low carryover with high-throughput design, unique peak deconvolution function (i-PDeA), superior data quality and solutions for automated analysis with Analytical Intelligence and a host of many other features make Shimadzu’s HPLC instruments indispensable additions to R&D/QC labs in multiple industries.
Extending the proven HPLC systems, Shimadzu offers dedicated platforms for carrying out targeted analyses with specific requirements. Highly selective detection based on unique chemistries derived from post-column derivatization of analytes such as amino acids and pharmaceuticals such as voglibose, exploring automated column/mobile phase switch-over for accelerating method development, sophisticated pH-buffered conductivity detection for compounds such as organic acids make these application systems highly popular and robust solutions for analyzing different sample matrices.
Shimadzu’s next generation HPLC-Prep systems meet the emerging demands and simplify isolation & purification of compounds through automation. The portfolio includes the Nexera Prep (HPLC Preparative System), the Nexera UC Prep (SFC Preparative System), and the UFPLC (Ultra-Fast Preparative and Purification Liquid Chromatography System), a fully automated system capable of performing preparation to recovery for LC applications. Also included in the Prep-LC package are related instruments such as the LH-40 liquid handler, the FRC-40 fraction collector, and Flow Splitters for preparative LC-MS applications. Supporting a range of applications from high-precision analytical (up to 10 mL/min) to semi-preparative (up to 20 mL/min) to large-scale preparative fractionation (up to 150 mL/min) and assisted by high- throughput fraction collection including recycling options, highly sensitive detection and isolation, Shimadzu Prep LC systems offer the maximum choice and flexibility.
With a glorious history of 70 years (1956 -2026) Shimadzu continues to excel in providing advanced, high sensitivity GCs, offering a wide range, from compact models like the Brevis GC- 2050 for routine analysis, to high-end systems like the Nexis GC-2030 for top-tier performance and automation capabilities. Shimadzu GC systems are engineered for reproducibility, modularity, and long-term reliability, making them a strong fit for compliance-heavy or high- throughput environments. From routine applications in volatile component analysis to headspace monitoring for residual solvents in pharmaceuticals, Shimadzu GCs set the industry benchmark in sensitivity, automation, reliability and compliance. Also offered are application specific- GC systems such as PONA solution, Transformer Gas Analysis systems etc.
LabSolutions MD is based on ‘Analytical Quality by Design’ (AQbD), a technique for evaluating and verifying analysis methods by clearly indicating their development background and basis. By streamlining analysis method development steps, ranging from data collection with a design of experiment approach to design space-based visualization, LabSolutions MD enables optimal analysis method development without requiring expertise.
Enhancing sensitivity and selectivity in HPLC analysis through special detectors has evolved over time. A range of detectors based on fluorescence, refractive index and photo diode array detectors from Shimadzu provide unique solutions for target analytes. Evaporative Light Scattering (ELSD) from SEDERE offers universal detection in LC with high sensitivity and compatibility with gradient runs; Beta RAM is the world’s leading radio HPLC detector for measuring C14 and H3 labelled- compounds. Antec Scientific provides the world’s best Electrochemical Detection for analysis of carbohydrates, macrolide & aminoglycoside antibiotics, neurotransmitters, starch etc. Pickering Labs Onyx PCX and Vector PCX have redefined post-column derivatization workflows contributing to enhanced selectivity and high sensitivity analysis of compounds such as amino acids, aflatoxins, antibiotics etc.
