Advantages
The primary advantage of the Columnmaster 4000 is its ability to deliver liquid to the column without disturbing the column bed. Such disturbances could lead to unacceptable mixing of two column washes, resulting in decreased purity of the sample on the column. Because the Columnmaster delivers water only as fast as the solute level is depleted, excess liquid is not delivered before it in needed, minimizing backflow and dilution. Another key advantage to using the Columnmaster 4000 is the ability of the researcher to leave the column for extended periods of time without the concern of overflow. The user can control the water level based on the positioning of the tubing. Multiple column volumes can be added based on the amount of liquid the user puts into the source vessel, which they can do all at once (as opposed to in small aliquots, as was previously necessary to ensure proper switching between washes.)

Famous quotes containing the word advantages:
“For, the advantages which fashion values, are plants which thrive in very confined localities, in a few streets, namely. Out of this precinct, they go for nothing; are of no use in the farm, in the forest, in the market, in war, in the nuptial society, in the literary or scientific circle, at sea, in friendship, in the heaven of thought or virtue.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“... is it not clear that to give to such women as desire it and can devote themselves to literary and scientific pursuits all the advantages enjoyed by men of the same class will lessen essentially the number of thoughtless, idle, vain and frivolous women and thus secure the [sic] society the services of those who now hang as dead weight?”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
“In 1845 he built himself a small framed house on the shores of Walden Pond, and lived there two years alone, a life of labor and study. This action was quite native and fit for him. No one who knew him would tax him with affectation. He was more unlike his neighbors in his thought than in his action. As soon as he had exhausted himself that advantages of his solitude, he abandoned it.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
