Genevac announces an innovation in solvent evaporation technology that enables scientists to pool and productively concentrate large volume sample fractions directly into a single standard sample vial
For high-throughput applications including compound storage, drug development and environmental analysis, methods that can reduce analytical work are desirable.
Pooling of fractions that contain a common analyte, to yield a single sample, save time and are therefore highly desirable.
Until now though no commercial technology existed for pooling and concentrating large volume fractions.
Available in three sizes (50ml, 125ml and 300ml) the ingenious patented design of SampleGenie enables Genevac's popular EZ-2 and HT series centrifugal evaporators to accelerate the pooling of multiple large volume fractions into a single small sample vial.
Constructed in a choice of glass or 316L stainless steel a SampleGenie is available to cope with most solvent types.
Using SampleGenie a HT-4X evaporator was able to dry 24 samples in parallel, each containing 50ml of water in less than 9hrs.
Used in conjunction with Genevac's LyoSpeed methods - 24 samples each containing 25ml of water / acetonitrile (60:40) were fast lyophilised in only 6hr 45min.
Many years of experience in solvent evaporation and sample purification have allowed Genevac to produce high-efficiency sample concentrators that deliver high performance, ease of use, high reliability, and compatibility with most commonly used solvents and acids.
The new SampleGenie accessory further extends the utility of these systems to be able to provide a truly efficient tool for pooling and rapid concentration of large volume samples.
