CECIL INSTRUMENTS LIMITED

The Cecil Instruments autosampler, may be used with virtually all HPLC and Ion Chromatography systems. The astoundingly reliable 100 sample position autosampler, provides for ultra-low carryover, ultra-high injection precision, replicate injections and sample volumes from 5 µL to 2 mL. The ultra-low carry-over, provides effective sampling for todays’ trace residue and contaminant analyses.

Cecil Instruments now include four different models within their trusted Aquarius range of spectrophotometers. These multi-lingual double beam spectrophotometers may be operated in a choice of six languages. They provide superb performance, have powerful ESEF software and are fully accessorised. The range includes spectrophotometers with pharmacopoeial compliance, wavelength ranges between 190 to 1,100 nm, bandwidths, both fixed and variable, from 0.5 to 4 nm and PC control options. These versatile Cecil Instruments’ spectrophotometers may also be pre-programmed for use with proprietary test kits, for a vast range of assays, dedicated to water and effluent analysis. Life science and food and beverage pre-programmes, are available too. These spectrophotometers bring reliability, high performance, speed, versatility and convenience to R & D, Quality Control and Academia.

Cecil Instruments are leading designers and manufacturers of HPLC systems, Ion Chromatographs and UV/Visible Spectrophotometers. Cecil Instruments have launched the new, low cost and easy to use Merit HPLC range. The Merit systems expand their proven Q-Adept and Adept HPLC ranges. These PC controlled isocratic and binary systems, are designed to be the easiest of HPLC systems to operate, at the same time offering performance of the highest specification. Set-up of the system hardware is fast and the PC software takes just a few minutes to master. The Merit systems are excellent for use in screening, quality checks, method development, teaching and use by novices. The price of an isocratic system is GBP 6,990 and GBP 7,990 for a binary system. Delivery is fast.

Cecil Instruments’ Adept and Q-Adept ranges of flexible modular HPLC and IonQuest Ion Chromatography, may be configured to suit individual requirements. There is a wide range of detectors, including the revolutionary UV/Visible WaveQuest. The elegantly effective AutoQuest autosamplers are specially designed for use with the Cecil Adept HPLC, Q-Adept HPLC and IonQuest Ion Chromatography Systems. They may also be used with third party LC systems. The Cecil compact column heaters and heater/chillers are also compatible with third party LC systems, with sufficient space for up to three 25 cm columns and a chemical suppressor valve. Comprehensive, versatile, intuitive and easy to use PowerStream software provides for 21 CFR part 11 compliance. Adept HPLC, Q-Adept HPLC and IonQuest Ion Chromatography systems have been designed with the user in mind. Systems are easy and fast to install. They are virtually plug and play.

Modular, versatile, effortless, sensitive and automated Ion Chromatography. For laboratory use in water testing, testing of soils, toiletry production, electroplating, mining, fracking, semi-conductor and effluent industries etc. The extremely low drift and ultra low noise conductivity detector, may be purchased separately, for use with third party chromatography systems.

The new Cecil DC, scanning DC and pulsed amperometric electrochemical detector, has a wide choice of working and reference electrodes. Sensitivities of 10 to the power of -15 mol are achievable with ease and simplicity. The detector may be added to modular Adept and Q-Adept HPLC systems, IonQuest ion chromatography systems and to third party liquid chromatography systems. Hence, trace level detection of many residues, environmental contaminants, poisons, carbohydrates, residual drugs, paint traces, metabolites and pesticide residues etc., is easily achievable.

These versatile multilingual Cecil Instruments spectrophotometers are pre-programmed for use with proprietary reagent test kits, in a vast range of assays dedicated to water and effluent analysis. Providing for fast, convenient, easy and reliable measurements. These versatile spectrophotometers may be used for other additional laboratory applications and may be operated in a choice of six languages. Instant ESEF software options perform user-specified and pre-programmed functions. Code protected, user-created methods are effortlessly added.

The multilingual GeneQuest, BioQuest and BioAquarius series provide a wide range of spectrophotometers, starting from dedicated DNA/RNA analysers to more sophisticated spectrophotometers which can help with structural elucidation. Easy to use, versatile, PC controllable, many molecular biology spectrophotometers may also be used for other general purpose laboratory applications too. Our software packages mean easy performance of user calculations. A wide range of ESEF instant software options, which can grow with your needs, is available. Data are very easily exported to PCs, integral printers or external printers. Both our single and double beamed instruments perform pre-programmed assays for nucleic acids, proteins, oligonucleotides, experimental thermal melt and cell culture determinations. User-programmed methods, are easily made and stored.
