Hello,
I want to do a sample recirculation with ÄKTA system and sample loading pump---50 ml sample goes through column installed in the ÄKTA system and then goes back to the sample beaker. During the sample recirculation, I hope there is no buffer through the column, only the sample.
I create a automatic method as followed,
0.00 Block sample
(sample)
0.00 Base Time
0.00 Flow 0.00 {ml/min}
0.00 OutletValve F4
0.00 Gradient 0.0 {%B} 0.00 {base}
0.00 SampleFlow_960 2.0 {ml/min}
0.00 Alarm_Pressure Disabled 5.00 {MPa} 0.00 {MPa}
0.00 Wavelength 280 {nm} 254 {nm} OFF {nm}
0.00 DirectLoad_960 2.0 {ml/min} 100.0 {ml}
4.00 End_Block
However, there is some problems,
1. “Directload” will sample go through the whole system and column? I found it was staying “hold” mode.
2.With this method, I can not read the pressure of system.
3.Does the “Flow” only mean the flow of buffer, not the sample? Because, if I did not set the “Flow” as 0.00, the buffer would also go through at the same time.
If anyone had related experience or any suggestion, pls let me know.
It will be pretty appreciated!
Thank you in advance.
