FRC-40/FRC-10A
Fraction Collector
FRC-40

Efficient, Easy to Use, Space Saving
- Up to six fraction collectors can be connected simultaneously.
- Compatible with many racks corresponding to the intended fraction volume.
- Can accommodate up to 3,240 fractions (6 FRC-40s, 10 mm tubes).
FRC-10A
A proprietary band function enables obtaining accurate fractions even when the peak elution time varies, by catching the target component according to variations in the chromatogram. If connected to workstation software, fractions can be simulated on screen to determine whether or not the fraction program is appropriate.
Drive System and Fraction Collection Methods | Arm-Movement X-Y System Select either solenoid valve or direct through nozzle |
Fraction Modes | Manual or programmed fraction collection by combining 14 types of parameters, such as slope, level, and band |
Number of Fractions | 16 to 144 |
Collection Tubes | Glass: 3.5, 5, 20, 32, or 50 mL, or user supplied Polypropylene: 4.5, 5, 25, or 50 mL, or user supplied |
FRC-10A Fraction Collector is required to control CBM-20A / 20Alite or SCL-10AVP.

Analysis of Tea Beverages Using Catechin Analysis Kit
The catechin analysis kit, developed in collaboration with the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO), provides validated test methods for catechins in tea leaves and green tea drinks from sample pre-treatment to HPLC measurement. You can accurately quantitate the content of 11 catechins (including methylated catechins) and caffeine in tea leaves. This article summarizes the results of the catechins quantitation in several beverages: green tea, black tea, and oolong tea.

Extraction and Fractionation of Functional Ingredients with Online SFE-SFC
This article describes a preparative online supercritical fluid extraction-supercritical fluid chromatography (SFE-SFC) system that combines an extraction step using supercritical carbon dioxide as the solvent, a separation step using supercritical carbon dioxide as the mobile phase, and a fractionation step using a preparative-scale fraction collector (FRC).
