Bio-Simplex™ Sterile Disposable Centrifuge Tubes are ready-to-use cost-effective single-use containers designed for general biopharmaceutical manufacturing applications such as preculture and sampling. 

WHEATON’s selection of chromatography vials and accessories offers quality, value and reliability. WHEATON chromatography vials are designed for trouble-free operation in most autosamplers.

SoftGrip pipettes routinely receive the highest user satisfaction score of 10 on 11 different aspects of a pipette, including plunger and eject forces, weight, diameter, and texture.

Baumann 85000 sanitary pinch valves are intended for use with up to 3/4 inch O.D. pharmaceutical grade tubing. They are designed to couple FIELDVUE™ digital valve controller intelligence with a linear actuator and tube shell.

Designed with a smaller footprint so it will fit right in your lab, the Avanti J-E is compact yet powerful. The Avanti J-E’s extensive rotor library maximizes capacity and optimizes g-force for efficient, fast separations and greater variety of applications. Its high-torque, switched reluctance (SR) drive technology delivers faster acceleration and deceleration, which means less wait time for you. It offers an intuitive, user-friendly interface, as well as lower energy costs. What’s more, the Avanti J-E’s low height and contoured front panel help ease the burden of rotor installation and retrieval, for even more convenient operation.

Time-to-clinic and time-to-market are two key factors in successful biopharmaceutical development.

Mixed-mode chromatography resin is a top tier selection for the manipulation, purification and handling of molecules; providing an unmatched level of separation properties and resolution. The combination of cation exchange resin and metal affinity resin properties, allows multimodal chromatography to provide an access route for biomolecules to separate and the use of alternative chromatographic methods make these biomolecules seem homogenous.

The Avanti® J-HC High Capacity Centrifuge provides you with a complete solution for batch bioprocessing. A maximum of 9 Liters can be spun at speeds of 5,000 rpm and 7,480 x g for greater sample throughput. This allows processing of up to 36 Liters per hour when harvesting bacteria. Enhanced operator safety is provided with disposable HarvestLine System Liners.
