International pharmaceutical companies like GSK have been utilizing PIC Solution’s sustainable instruments for over two decades to isolate small molecules in an eco-friendly manner.
In a research poster by Rachel Schmidt et al. (2012), PIC Solution instruments were used to demonstrate the environmentally conscious benefits of SFC. In the study, 80-96% of CO2 was efficiently recycled. This capability was revered as a necessary sustainable advancement in the field of small molecule purification.
Below is Life Cycle Assessment data of a 500g scale separation which elucidates just some of the ways PIC Solution can decrease your environmental impact in comparison to traditional HPLC.
