Jasco
JASCO Corporation was founded in 1958 to provide the scientific community with optical spectroscopy products.
Over the last 60 years Jasco Corporation has continued to attain the highest standards in terms of optical performance, ease of use, and reliability. Over the years the Jasco product line has grown to cover instruments used, not only in research but also for routine analysis applications in areas such as quality control, environmental analysis, and process control. The current spectroscopy product line encompasses instrumentation for the following methods:
- UV/Visible and Near Infrared Spectrophotometers
- Fluorescence Spectrophotometers
- Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometers (FTIR)
- FT-Raman Spectrophotometers
- Dispersive Raman Spectrometers and Raman Microprobes
- Circular Dichroism Spectrometers
- Polarimeters Near Field Optical Micro-Spectrometers
- Ellipsometers
With the introduction of HPLC in the mid-1970's Jasco's experience in highly sensitive and accurate optical systems led to the development of a series of chromatographic detection systems. Fixed and variable wavelength UV/Visible and Fluorescence detectors were introduced featuring excellent sensitivity and reliability in compact modules. In order to offer complete HPLC systems JASCO developed a variety of novel solvent delivery systems as well as other accessories such as column ovens, autosamplers, and PC based control and analysis software. The current LC-900 series includes:
- Variable Wavelength/Scanning UV/Visible Detectors
- Multiple Wavelength UV Detector
- Diode-array UV/Visible Detector
- Variable Wavelength/Scanning Fluorescence Detector
- Refractive Index Detector
- Chiral Detectors
- Isocratic and Gradient Solvent Delivery with Analytical to Preparative Flow Rates
- Autosamplers
- Column Ovens
Jasco has been an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) for a number of companies over the years supplying instrumentation to Waters, Agilent, Bio-Rad, LDC, Gilson, Dionex, Beckman, and IBM Instruments.
