KONIK LAST EXHIBITIONS
ISC 2010 - Valencia, September 12 – 16 www.isc2010.eu
Our Managing Director Dr. Josep M. Gibert has presented an oral presentation entitled “MULTIDIMENSIONAL HPLC+GC-MS: EXTENDED USE FOR NON-VOLATILE
AND POLAR COMPOUNDS USING ON-LINE DERIVATIZATION”. Our innovative, patented, multidimensional KONIK K2Q12 HPLC+HRGC-MS system earlier used advantageously
in the analysis of volatiles and semi-volatiles has been successfully used to determination of polar, non-volatile, substances. These new applications
are based on a patented, automated, on-line derivatization approach.
Extending the range of applications of our combined LC-GC technology to the analysis of non-volatile and polar substances, has been achieved by
automatic derivatization of compounds in the GC inlet through the KONIK TOTAD® interface. The presented applications include phenolic compounds in cocoa
samples and drug impurities in illicit drugs…all by direct injection of sample extracts into the HPLC and analysis of the on-line formed silyl derivatives
into the coupled KONIK GC-MS without any prior sample clean-up step.
This system simplifies sample handling; the derivatization step is totally automatized and faster than in off-line methodology, reduces total analysis time,
the use of solvents and sample consumption, especially important in several fields, such as forensic analysis. The on-line derivatization HPLC+GC system also
reduces significantly the total cost of analysis while maintaining sample integrity, increasing recovery and improving detection limits. Finally, the on-line
LC+GC-MS approach guarantees GC column integrity due to less derivatization by-products introduction into the system.
The KONIK Multidimensional HPLC+GC-MS System offers clean cut advantages vs. LC-MS-MS systems, as the KONIK K2Q12 can be used for target analytes determination
with higher selectivity than MS-MS, as well as allows lower detection limits than HPLC-MS-MS and/or GC-MS-MS, while being quite universal as facilitates low level
determination of any organics (volatiles, semi-volatiles and non-volatiles), in any sample matrix with minimum or no-sample preparation.
This breath taking innovative technology is complemented by a Universal Quantification option, the KONIK Quantitator, that eliminates de use of calibration
standards. The overall KONIK, breakthroughs, as complement and replace existing technologies, are finding their way in many fields such as metabolomics, natural
and pharmaceutical products, drugs, forensics and toxicology, environmental and industrial hygiene, and petroleum and bio-fuels fingerprinting among other.

KONIK IN PITTCON 2010:
The Konik Group will participate in the PIttcon 2010 Exhibition.
Konik Instruments, Inc.- Our company will feature a fully renovated and expanded product line that has incorporated the Multidimensional
HPLC+GC K2 PLUS based on the renewed HPLC 600 and the HRGC 5000B, the RoboKrom Autoinjector fully upgradable to the Multidimensional
RoboKrom Autosampler, the smashing high performance/low cost KONIK Q2 GC-MS EI/CI specially designed for dedicated GC/MS and
HPLC+GC-MS, the Purgue & Trap on line and the revolutionary KONIK QUANTITATOR, patented option to be attached to the Konik GC-MS, for
complete quantification of any organic compound without requiring individual calibration standards for each analyte.

ANALYTICA 2010 - Munich, March 23 – 26 (KONIK Booth # A1.246) www.analytica.de
Thank you very much for the time you spent with us in our booth during the ANALYTICA tradeshow last week in Munich (Germany). We wish you had a pleasant
and interesting time. We are pleased to annouce you that the person awarded with the FC Barcelona 2009 World Top Player Mr. Lionnel Messi’s T-shirt has been:
Dr. Markus Radzom from BASF, Germany. The prize will be sent by courrier to the winner.
Here you will be able to find some pictures of last Friday the 26th of March were draw resolution took place in presence of other exhibitors and
attendants, as well as find information about our innovative European range of proprietary KONIK GC, HPLC, HPLC+GC, GC-MS, HPLC-MS, and HPLC+GC-MS,
RoboKrom, and Absolute Universal KONIK Quantitator, covered by more than ten patents. Expecting to meet you again in next ANALYTICA 2012, we remain
looking forward to hear from you soon, do not hesitate to contact us for any question you might have. In the meantime, we would like to thank you again
for visiting us.

KONIK participation at the seminar
ADVANCES IN PESTICIDE RESIDUAL ANALYSIS
KONIK-Tech was very
pleased to participate in the successful SAC days
organized by our Distributors in Thailand,
Sithiphorn Co.
In the picture our
Managing Director Dr. Josep M. Gibert presenting the
innovative “KONIK Pesticilizer ®” (pesticide residue
analyzer) to the expert audience (next picture). The
KONIK Pestilizer ® is based in our innovative,
patented, multidimensional KONIK K2 HPLCxHRGC, a
unmatched brake through that simultaneously gives
you lower detection limits, reduce total analysis
time, reduces significantly the use of solvents,
eliminates de tedious extraction steps in liquid
samples, and hence reduces significantly the total
cost of analysis while maintaining sample integrity.
KONIK-Tech has developed and patented methods for
pesticide residue analysis in vegetables and edible
oils. Proven applications include sterols ion edible
oils, PAH in mineral oils, PCB’s in transformer
oils, endocrine disruptors and metabolites in urine…all
by direct injection of the sample into the HPLC and
compound class analysis into the KONIK HRGC, and/or
KONIK HRGC-MS Q12
without any prior sample preparation. |
