Publication number: 20200122158Abstract: Provided is a centrifugal field-flow fractionation device in which a liquid sample is less likely to leak from a channel and attachment and detachment work of a channel member is facilitated. By integrally forming an outer peripheral surface 162 and an inner peripheral surface 163 of a channel member 16, the channel member 16 is configured as one hollow member having a channel 161 formed inside. Thus, pressure resistance performance of the channel member 16 is improved, formation of a gap in the channel 161 can be prevented, and deterioration in sealing performance due to secular change is not generated. Accordingly, a liquid sample is less likely to leak from the channel 161. Further, since the channel member 16 can be handled as one member, attachment and detachment work of the channel member 16 is facilitated.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2016Publication date: April 23, 2020Applicant: SHIMADZU CORPORATIONInventors: Kengo AOKI, Haruhisa KATO
