    Abstract: A preparative liquid chromatograph including an analysis channel (2), an injector (6), a separation column (8), a detector (10), a plurality of fraction collectors (14-1 to 14-n), a switching valve (12) that switches fraction collectors (14-1 to 14-n) to be connected to the outlet of the detector (10) among the plurality of fraction collectors (14-1 to 14-n), and a controller (16) for controlling operations of the plurality of fraction collectors (14-1 to 14-n) and the switching valve (12). In a case where the number of remaining unused collection containers of the fraction collector in use, which is connected to the outlet of the detector, falls below the number of buffers which is an integer of two or more, the controller (16) is configured to switch the switching valve (12) while the fraction collector in use is not performing a peak collection operation.

    Abstract: Provided is a preparative liquid chromatograph capable of coping with a case where actual second delay time changes after start of a fractionation sequence. When a specific component detected as a peak in both a first detector and a second detector is injected during execution of a fractionation sequence, a control device executes maintenance operation of time difference information stored in an information storage area. In the maintenance operation, the control device executes peak determination as to whether or not a difference between first retention time and second retention time falls within a predetermined allowable range. By the above, the control device checks whether or not the second delay time from when a component is detected by the second detector to when the component reaches a fraction collector changes from a previous state.

    Abstract: A method for determining the flow rate of a liquid flow in a liquid chromatography system. The liquid chromatography system sequentially comprises a fraction valve, a first sensor and a second sensor along a flow path direction, wherein a pipeline between the first sensor and the second sensor has a known inter-sensor pipeline volume. The method comprises: step A: emptying a pipeline between a liquid discharge port of the fraction valve and the first sensor; step B: guiding a liquid flow from a liquid discharge port of the fraction valve to pipelines at positions where the first sensor and the second sensor are located; and step C: determining the flow rate of the liquid flow on the basis of a time difference between a first moment when the first sensor detects a liquid-gas interface where the liquid flow interfaces with a gas and a second moment when the second sensor detects the liquid-gas interface, and an inter-sensor pipeline volume. Further provided is a fraction collector. The accuracy of flow rate measurement and the efficiency of fraction collection can be greatly improved by means of the liquid-gas interface provided by the liquid flow passing through the emptied liquid discharge pipeline.
