Yes, indeed, the new HPLC has arrived and is being installed.
A High Performance Liquid Chromatography machine (HPLC) is used as an analytical chemistry tool to separate, identify, and quantify each component in a mixture.
It relies on pumps to pass a pressurised liquid solvent containing the sample mixture through a column filled with a solid adsorbent material.
Each component in the sample interacts slightly differently with the adsorbent material, causing different flow rates for the different components and leading to the separation of the components as they flow out of the column.
We will use the HPLC to ensure our Zestt Wellness products have optimum levels of bioactives in our fruit extracts, before and after processing - essentially, it allows us greater quality control - and greater opportunities for exploration for Darcy - oh dear!

Poll: Have you ever tried learning a language?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hannah Westbury likes to chat with customers at her checkout - so much so that she’s learning sign language for one regular.

Paeroa-based Westbury has worked in Woolworths for the past seven years and moved to checkout a year ago.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
