3Prime has announced a 'back-to-school' promotion: discounts of up to 60% on all orders of Prime Performance CPG, Retro Columns, and Molecular Traps until 1 November 2007
3Prime's controlled porosity glass is specifically intended for oligo synthesis applications and has been optimised for pore diameter, pore volume, specific surface area, bulk density and ligand distribution.
3Prime has also perfected end-capping techniques to minimise n-x impurities by blocking potentially active side-sites.
Designed by Integrated DNA Technologies, these columns are said to be suitable for ABI 39x, Milligen and Expedite synthesisers, bringing yield and purity to a higher level.
Their performance has been proven in daily high-volume production over millions of syntheses, says 3Prime.
They are available in three sizes: 50nanomole, 200nanomole and 1micromole.
Molecular Traps are highly activated molecular sieve packets designed to provide and maintain very low water levels in solvents and solutions.
Optimized for oligonucleotide synthesis, 3Prime's Molecular Traps are a convenient, dust and lint free, way of adding molecular sieves to many solvents and organic solutions.
They can generally be used in any application where molecular sieves are utilised to dehydrate or maintain anhydrous solvents through repeated air exposures.
Three sizes are available: 2g (monomer bottle size), 5g, and 10g.
3Prime's other product ranges include Prime Performance PS, a polystyrene solid support that has been optimised for oligo synthesis where an organic polymeric support is preferred.
Furthermore, 3Prime offer entire columns (standard or custom) and column parts for almost all oligo synthesis instruments presently in use.
