End and conclusions.


Sadly enough I was not able to continue the project because of the lack of time. It the end the signal had a good strength, the noise was minimized and we had a qualitative separation of low amounts of substances. I think that with a higher flow rate than our peristaltic pump could produce (maximum 9 ml/min, while normal flash chromatograph works by ca 35ml/min) it would be able to get a better separation and the chromatogram would look like it does on commercial devices. This project shows that it is possible to build a cheap scientific device based on Arduino that can give reliable data and can be used in chemical /pharmaceutical or other type of research.


Special thanks:         Sebastian Hermes- for Interest on the project, many advices, ideas and help
