Viscotek will present its latest range of high performance detectors, software and systems for characterisation of polymers, proteins and nanoparticles at the Analytica 2006 and Achema 2006 in Germany
Viscotek says it is the global leader in gel permeation chromatography (GPC) / size exclusion chromatography (SEC) detectors, software and systems for the characterisation of polymers, copolymers, proteins, protein conjugates and nanoparticles.
In a single experiment, researchers can use Viscotek's unique and patented static light scattering, dynamic light scattering, viscometer, triple detector and tetra detector technologies to obtain absolute molecular weight, molecular size, intrinsic viscosity, conformation, structure, branching, aggregation and copolymer composition.
Visitors to Analytica stand A1.138 and Achema stand C19 (Hall 5.1) will have the chance to see and discuss Viscotek's market leading multi-detector GPC/SEC systems including the Triple Detector Array (TDA), the GPCmax and the latest revision of Omnisec software.
Viscotek triple detection systems, which employ a concentration detector, viscometer and light scattering detector operating in concert, are today the defacto standard for the characterisation of natural and synthetic polymers and proteins in the petrochemical, specialty chemical, elastomers, adhesives, coatings, food, agricultural, academic, pharmaceutical and biotechnology markets.
Also on display will be the Model 802 DLS with new OmniSize 2.0 software that includes a range of new features including a unique regularisation algorithm.
Offering superior sensitivity, resolution and accuracy, born out of Viscotek's exclusive single mode fibre (SMF) technology, the Model 802 DLS delivers leading edge results for applications including screening protein constructs for crystallisation, characterisation of colloidal and nanoparticulate drug delivery systems, protein conformation analysis and measuring the stability and size of lipids and conjugates.
Viscotek's innovative products and technologies are backed in Europe by superior technical service and analytical support from established offices in the UK, Netherlands, Germany, and France.
Viscotek's European staff includes a broad and growing range of polymer chemists, engineers and software specialists, as well as an experienced sales and marketing force.
Investment in experienced and knowledgeable staff has enabled the company to provide an unmatched level of service and support to customers across Europe.
