Proyield Cotton CNE50M-UF is a protein hydrolysate derived from cottonseed by enzymatic hydrolysis. The enzymes used for digestion are from non-animal sources. Proyield Cotton CNE50M-UF has been ultrafiltered to reduce endotoxin.

The Hamilton PRP™-C18 is a new HPLC column designed to provide high-efficiency, reversed-phase separations over an extended column life in nearly any mobile phase or pH.

Freeze drying is a potentially damaging process, especially to labile materials such as proteins or living organisms. Depending on the product type damage can occur at various stages of the process including freezing, drying and heating.

A proven method for confirming protein purity and yield without the need for gel staining steps. Stain-free gels provide visual confirmation of protein purity and yield by gel electrophoresis in less than 30 minutes. Stain-free technology is perfect for drug discovery, drug development, and method development for preclinical research.

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.

3M Purification's core filtration technologies address the most demanding applications in pharmaceutical processing for small molecule and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) applications.

A wide selection of ion exchange resin is available in various particle sizes, ionic forms, and purity ranges to offer a variety of purification solutions for process applications. Nuvia ion exchange resins are a family of best-in-class ion exchangers built with exceptionally high capacities and excellent purification capabilities, providing process developers more flexibility and higher productivity. The Macro-Prep are rigid macroporous hydrophilic resin meet the demands of process-scale applications. Chemically and mechanically stable, the resin operate well at low and medium pressures.
