Darcy at Zestt Wellness is very excited!
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: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Have you come across many roadworks sites recently?
The frustration of seeing a detour sign partway through your journey on the main highways possibly the new way forward when it comes to roadworks.
One of the latest areas to have a section of the road blocked off is State Highway 1 between Putāruru to Tokoroa as part of a massive renewal project that extends down to Waiouru.
