Testimonial - Separation Science, Germany
Prof. Ralf. Zimmermann with LECO Service technician Frank Nagler during the installation of new LECO Pegasus BT 4D
“Not least the introduction of LECO HRT technology and BT technology was the reason to stay with LECO … Finally, the introduction of the LECO Benchtop platform allowed us to establish another robust and extremely sensitive GCxGC System for high-throughput analysis of our highly complex matrix. ”
