Solvent removal system allows chemists to evaporate two different solvents simultaneously, significantly speeding drying in busy HPLC and central purification laboratories
Genevac reports that the advanced prototype of its HT-24 high-throughput solvent removal system, previewed last week at Achema, generated considerable interest from visitors - particularly those involved with drug discovery and purification. Compact in design and offering a very high capacity for a wide range of sample formats including microplates, tubes, vials and Genevac's new hybrid fraction collector blocks, the HT-24 offers the versatility and productivity to assist chemists in a high-throughput environment.
Using the HT-24 chemists will, for the first time, be able to evaporate two different solvents simultaneously, significantly speeding drying in busy HPLC and central purification laboratories.
The high-throughput design of the HT-24 allows up to 96 shallow-well microplates to be dried down at the same time, while capacity for standard 16x100mm fraction collector tubes is an outstanding 576 tubes per run.
A high efficiency oil-free pump together with a new compound condenser design housed beneath the evaporator chambers means that an HT-24 can be placed into a walk-in fume hood with ease.
A full launch is expected later in the year.
