Centrifugal concentrators for molecular biology applications will allow scientists working with DNA, RNA, peptides, oligonucleotides and proteins to safely and swiftly concentrate or dry their samples
Genevac has announced the launch of a completely new range of affordable centrifugal concentrators for molecular biology applications.
It says the MiVac range is the product of extensive market research with biologists around the world, and has been designed to meet the requirements for careful and speedy drying in most biological applications.
Special methods for drying aqueous and alcohol-based samples are included in all the MiVac models.
A range of concentrators feature capacity from six to 12 stacked shallow-well microplates or 64 to 200 micro centrifuge tubes of 1.5ml size.
The MiVac concentrators feature full LCD display with digital controls and programming of time and temperature.
A range of matching vacuum pumps is also available, including two-head and four-head diaphragm pumps and an ultra-low vacuum scroll-type pump.
Benchmarked to provide best-of-class performance in all aspects, MiVac systems will allow scientists working with DNA, RNA, peptides, oligonucleotides and proteins to safely and swiftly concentrate or dry their samples.
In addition, a refrigerated cold trap will be available as an add-on unit for MiVac concentrators to speed concentration and recover waste solvent.
The modular design, smart styling and range of interchangeable rotors will suit most laboratories, while the large LCD display and easy programming makes these instruments simple to use for everyone in the lab.
