Genevac's Rocket Synergy Evaporator is a powerful tool designed to accelerate traditionally difficult and time-consuming chiral separation protocols.
Interest in the synthesis and separation of enantiomers of organic compounds has increased in recent years because of their importance in the natural products, biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. The chiral analytes of interest are typically separated in large volumes of solvent, which can be time-consuming and may risk thermal degradation of valuable separated chiral products when using a rotary evaporator.
With patented low temperature and low pressure steam heating technology, the Rocket Synergy Evaporator is able to achieve the dual goals of very fast evaporation with very precise temperature control, accelerating the safe production of chiral separation samples. Interchangeable rotors mean a single system can handle the widest range of sample volumes.
When fitted with a six-place rotor, the Rocket Synergy can dry or concentrate up to six 400ml flasks or 18 x 50ml tubes simultaneously. Replace the flask rotor with a five-litre stainless steel bowl rotor and batch volumes of up to five litres can be evaporated in a single run.
As well as benefiting from patented Dri-Pure technology, the Rocket Synergy is able to prevent solvent bumping, foaming and cross contamination problems inherent with rotary evaporator and other vacuum evaporation systems.
