Antec Leyden has developed an integrated system solution for the analysis
of resveratrol, epicatechin, quercetin and other polyphenols in wine
and food products. The system uses a gradient LC system to optimise
separation. Polyphenols
- Excellent reproducibility and linearity
- Micro LC (2 mm) to reduce solvent consumption and
waste
- Gradient HPLC for analysis in complex matrix

ALEXYS
Polyphenols |
For the analysis of polyphenols in wine and food products a flowcell with glassy carbon electrode and HyREF was
used. The HyREF is completely
maintenance free, and compatible with high modifier percentages. The
mobile phase contains up to 25% acetonitrile, therefore a 2mm column
has been used at a flow rate of 200 uL/min which results in less
chemical waste. The ALEXYS system comprises the following parts:
- AS 110 autosampler, cool
- LC 110 HPLC pump (2)
- OR 110 organiser rack
- Clarity data acquisition software
- DECADE II electrochemical detector
- Flow cell with GC WE, HyREF
