LabLogics radio HPLC detector installed in U.K. hospital

LabLogic’s new Flow-RAM gamma radio High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) detector for PET and SPECT has been installed at the Imperial College's Hammersmith Hospital Campus in London.

Flow-RAM is available in different configurations whereby either one or two detectors can be connected to the system at any one time. The user can lock down features such as the high voltage, upper and lower level discriminators to prevent unauthorized adjustments to specified radionuclide operating parameters, ensuring consistent Good Laboratory Practice/Good Manufacturing Practice (GLP/GMP) compliance, according to the Broomhill, United Kingdom-based company.

For sites wishing to use the detector with their existing chromatography system, the Flow-RAM offers stand-alone control through a pocket digital assistant over a Bluetooth wireless link, added the company.
