Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, announced today the availability of the new Thermo Scientific Column Oven range.  Recognizing the importance of temperature as a parameter in liquid chromatography, the Column Oven delivers efficient temperature control coupled with the highest levels of reproducibility and stability. The company the will showcase the Column Oven in the Thermo Scientific hospitality suite at the Salt Palace Convention Center Salons 50BCEF during ASMS 2010. 

The effect of temperature on LC separations is often crucial where closely eluting substances are being separated and therefore, where accurate data is required, precise temperatures are vital. With exact temperature control to +/-0.1°C, the Thermo Scientific Column Oven gives scientists the confidence that their oven provides the accuracy that they need, first time; every time.  The temperature control unit of Column Oven is designed for simple, fast manual control of the column temperature or alternatively, optional drivers can be used to control the Column Oven through the instrument software to further assist users. 

The Column Oven comes in two specifications enabling the user to choose the most appropriate model for their specific application; the Column Oven 200 is capable of accommodating up to 4 analytical HPLC columns with lengths up to 150mm, while the Column Oven 300, is able to contain as many as 4 analytical columns with lengths to 250mm.  Either configuration can be mounted on a CTC autosampler or many Thermo Scientific mass spectrometer ion sources.
