On a basis of secrecy, consultations were held with a Dutch instrument firm. The objective was potential exploitation of the so-called SCREAM model. Without going into the basic principles behind the method, SCREAM successfully eliminates the chromatographic separation step without any loss of precision.
This means quantitative Multi analyses can be carried out in the space of 1 minute and there is no longer any waiting time between sample refinement and analysis result. There is considerable demand for such a technique considering the shorter processing times required from laboratories.
Due to the experimental nature of the model and the poor match with the core business of the intended partner however, this partnership was not extended. We will have to wait for a more suitable candidate.
