About Axel Semrau
Axel Semrau GmbH has been active in the field of chromatography and gas analysis since 1981. The company from Sprockhövel develops and sells system solutions for analytical practice, from automated sample preparation to analytical technology such as gas chromatography (GC/GC-MS) and liquid chromatography (LC/LC-MS). The solutions include the CHRONECT robotic automation platform, automated workstations, solid-phase extraction, and systems for sulfur and odorization monitoring in gas and natural gas analysis. Application areas include food, beverages and packaging, biotechnology and life sciences, pharmaceuticals, water and environmental analysis, gas and energy supply, geoscience, and product control and materials research. The offering is complemented by training courses, online device demonstrations, support, and services for gas and natural gas analysis. Since November 2021, the company has been part of the publicly listed Australian group Trajan Scientific and Medical.
