20130319945 | Device and Method for Field Flow Fractionation - A device for field flux fractioning comprises a sensor to determine the presence of particles in a liquid and a channel impermeable for particles and permeable for liquid. A pump conveys the liquid to first and second paths to the channel, where the second path connects in a first position to the pump outlet and in a second position to the sensor. An injection device injects a sample comprising particles into the liquid flowing through the first path. A distribution device distributes the flow volume conveyed by the pump in a first position at a predetermined ratio to the first and second paths. A control device comprises a valve and a measuring device to measure the flow volume. The valve controls the flow volume in the first path in consideration of the measuring device measurement and the pump conveys the liquid in a flow volume, which can be precisely dosed. | 12-05-2013 |
