The Minivap blow-down evaporator from Porvair Sciences takes just minutes to remove volatile organic solvents from HPLC fractions collected in 24- or 96-well microplates.
The compact, low-cost Minivap is claimed to be simple to install, operate and maintain.
Installation requires connection to a gas supply and a standard mains socket.
Safe operation is ensured as the CE-marked unit fits into all fume cupboards.
Incorporating advanced evaporator head technology that directly injects heated nitrogen into each well of a microplate simultaneously, the Minivap removes the traditional laboratory 'bottleneck' of solvent evaporation from HPLC fractions, according to the company.
