W a t e r s I n t e llige n t I n t a k e Va lve
How does t he I nt elligent I nt ake Valve work?
— An applied current generates a force, timed with the motion of
the pump plungers, that pushes a ball off its seat. In the case
of traditional passive check valves the ball is lifted off the seat
by the force of the solvent flow
Provides:
— More robust operation

UPLC™ D e t e ct ion
Technology challenges
Narrow peaks require:
— Higher data rates
— Faster digital filter time constants
Smaller peaks require maximum S/N
— High light throughput/transmission
UPLC™ separations require low
dispersion flow cells
— Maintain peak shape
— Lower cell volume
— Without generating high backpressures
© 2008 Waters Corporation
20
Re solu t ion / Low D ispe r sion
Flow Ce ll
Smaller cell volume – how?
Shorter pathlength
— Decreased sensitivity
A smaller cross- sectional area
— Reduces the amount of light transmission and baseline noise
increases

Ligh t Gu idin g Flow Ce lls
How they work
A light guiding flow cell is an
optical fiber whose core
material is a fluid
Light
Path
The optical fiber consists of a
core material surrounded by a
cladding layer (Teflon AF).
— Light is guided through the
core by the process of total
internal reflection
— Light rays that encounter the
interface between the core and
cladding are reflected back
into the core with essentially
100% efficiency

UPLC a n d M S
UPLC pr ovide s t h e follow in g be n e fit s for M S:
— Improved resolution for complex mixture analysis
— Narrower chrom at ographic peaks effect ively increase
concentration of analytes entering the MS source – increasing
signal intensity and improving MRM detection limits
— Shorter analytical run times without compromising
chromatographic resolution – increasing sample throughput
— I m proved resolut ion can reduce MS ion suppression by
separating species that co- elute in conventional HPLC –
improved MRM detection limits

ACQUITY UPLC™ Technology
4 Years in the Making – 4 Years in the Market
• UPLC™ technology was introduced after 4 years
of focused research and development at Waters
and with collaboration with world renown LC
scientists in academia and industry
• Introduced the first holistically designed UPLC™
system at Pitt Con 2004
• Many new detectors and other UPLC™ enabled
components and software as well as many new
columns have been added from 2004 to 2008
• Respected scientists and experts have published
reports in peer reviewed journals about the
extraordinary results not possible before UPLC™
technology was commercially available
• Thousands of companies have made major
investments to increase revenue, reduce costs and
maximize their resources based on the proven
results from UPLC™
