Thermo Scientific Dionex ICS-5000 Capillary Ion Chromatography System Global Food and Beverage Testing Solutions

World’s First Capillary Ion Chromatography System The Dionex ICS-5000 Reagent-Free™ Ion Chromatography (RFIC™) System with eluent generation is the most powerful IC system on the market today. Developed for flexibility, modularity, and ease of use, this system combines the highest sensitivity with convenience. The Dionex ICS-5000 is available for capillary, microbore, and standardbore flow rates (or a combination of any two using the dual system), providing flexibility to choose highest throughput or sensitivity. The wide variety of Dionex ICS-5000 modules enables configuration of an IC...

How Does the Dionex ICS-5000 Benefit Food and Beverage Analysis? Ion chromatography plays an important role in the analysis of food and beverage samples, especially when there is a need for greater sensitivity. Whether for food safety testing, quality control, or research and product development, IC plays an integral role in food laboratories. Ion chromatography is used in the analysis of many analytes. The most routine IC analysis is of common anions and cations in water and beverages. Ion chromatography is also heavily used for the analysis of carbohydrates, organic acids, and many food...

Less Calibration Drinking water plays an important role in the manufacturing of various beverages, from soft drinks to fruit juices. The quality of the drinking water used in the production of these drinks needs to be tested to ensure that the final beverage will have the desired taste and is contaminant free. By leaving the Dionex ICS-5000 always on and electrolytically generating the eluent, variations in the preparation of the mobile phase are not introduced and the background is less prone to changes, thereby reducing the need to calibrate. A check standard prior to running the sample...

No Startup or Equilibration Time Improved Performance Soft drinks are complex mixtures containing a variety of ingredients. To maintain product consistency and quality, some manufacturers quantify the amount of acidulant (commonly phosphoric and citric acids) used for each production batch. Because the Dionex ICS-5000 can be left on and running for routine analysis, elimination of instrument start-up and equilibration translates into significant time-savings and quicker sample turnaround. The Dionex ICS-5000 is truly an IC on-demand system, so product variations are identified at an early...

Low Overall Cost of Ownership Evaluating monosaccharides using the Dionex ICS-5000 for high-performance anionexchange chromatography (HPAE) coupled with PAD eliminates the need for eluent preparation. Carbohydrates such as glucosamine can be determined without chemical derivatization in less than 12 minutes. Nothing comes close to the ease of use, reproducibility, and performance of the Dionex ICS-5000’s RFIC/eluent-generation system. For wine production, detailed sugar analysis can be essential for new product development or quality control. The Dionex ICS-5000 requires no eluent...
