What is a GLS? The LotusStream separator (patented technology)

Gas-Liquid Phase Separator (GLS). Used in SFC systems to isolate compounds by separating it from the CO2.

Shimadzu engineered a state of the art GLS and patented it as the LotusStream separator (patented technology).

The Nexera UC Prep's patented gas-liquid separator, the LotusStream separator, successfully reduces sample dispersion and carryover, while also achieving high recovery rates. These high recovery rates can be obtained regardless of flow rate or modifier concentration, even for volatile compounds such as the fragrance linalool.

Comparison for 1% linalool

Equipment	Recovery rate
Conventional separator	78.0%
