Parallel anion and cation analysis is typically used when both anions and cation have to be analyzed in a sample. Here, the cation part of such an analysis is given. The sample is injected to the cation channel by the injector of the IC instrument bypassing the injector on the 889 IC Sample Center. The whole system is controlled by Empower applying the Metrohm IC Driver 2.0. For anion analysis, see AN-S-350.
