Substance Intelligence
starts with separation.
MagLev physically separates components within complex powdered mixtures before analysis—simplifying the sample and creating a clearer starting point for understanding what’s really there.
Before you can understand a complex mixture, you have to separate it.
Complex samples can contain multiple substances at very different concentrations. MagLev uses magnetic levitation to physically separate those components based on density, creating distinct fractions that can be examined or analyzed using existing analytical methods.
Why separation matters.
Complex mixtures can make individual substances difficult to analyze. MagLev physically separates components based on density, simplifying the sample so existing analytical tools can more clearly examine what’s there.
Simple physics. Powerful separation.
MagLev uses magnetic levitation to separate particles based on density. When a powdered sample is introduced into the separation fluid and placed within the magnetic field, different components move to distinct equilibrium positions—creating separated fractions that can be examined or extracted for further analysis.
