At the 2009 AOAC Annual Meeting and Exposition, SP Industries will present its Rocket evaporator and its application in the areas of agricultural, food, drug and environmental sciences.
Visitors to booth 105 will be able to see how the Rocket evaporator can dry or concentrate as many as six large-volume flasks up to five times faster than conventional rotary evaporators, said the company.
Incorporating Dri-Pure technology, the Rocket ensures high sample integrity by eliminating solvent bumping that can lead to cross contamination.
Used in conjunction with Samplegenie technology, the evaporator is also able to concentrate or dry large-volume samples directly into a small vial, eliminating post evaporation reformatting steps, which minimises sample loss and maximises laboratory workflow.
To use the Rocket, simply highlight the desired evaporation method using the right-hand knob and press start.
Methods can be uploaded via the USB key, while data can be downloaded in the same way.
Offering unattended operation capability, the Rocket evaporator requires no training.
The company said a beginner will be able to use the system in less than five minutes.
