Flow monitoring of radiolabelled compounds separated by chromatographic techniques has been established as one of the most powerful tools in many biochemistry related areas.

Radiolabelled compounds for drug and pesticide, metabolism or pharmacokinetic studies provide exceptional high sensitivity and specificity that is not available with mass detection, UV, fluorescence or conductivity measurements.

BERTHOLD TECHNOLOGIES first produced a Radio HPLC detector nearly 50 years ago. Improvements have been made over the years in performance of the instrument resulting in the latest “state of the art” detector FlowStar LB 513.

The HERM is an additional product in the detector range of BERTHOLD TECHNOLOGIES for flow through measurements. The high sensivity Sodium lodine Crystal enables, in conjunction with a lead shielding and Twin-Cell-Changer, to detect different Gamma emitting nuclides.
