Please check with your service guy about the use of DCM on the Pioneer.
I was told the valves will have a short lifetime when using DCM. Also
heard they are fixing the problem by producing new valves, which should be
available in the next 4 to 6 months. Anybody else heard about this?

We did have some Gly-PEG-PS which appeared either not to be capped, or the gly had fallen off over time and we saw a large population of Gly deleted peptides. Perseptive has relpaced this resin for me but I am concerned that it will happen again. Is there another more reliable source for these resins?
