With the Eppendorf BioSpectrometer basic, measurements can be executed in the UV and Vis range from 200 nm to 830 nm. The freely selectable wavelengths offer you maximum flexibility during these procedures.

Capto S, Capto Q and Capto DEAE are, respectively, strong cation, strong anion and weak anion exchange media for packed bed chromatography that increase speed and throughput in capture and intermediate purification.

The Avanti J-30I High-Performance Centrifuge System gives you the fastest separations possible - in the shortest amount of time. Swinging-bucket and fixed-angle rotors provide maximum separation forces in excess of 100,000 x g at speeds up to 30,000 rpm.

ÄKTA™ chromatography systems can handle both simple and complex purification tasks and accelerate daily routines. All systems are controlled by UNICORN™ software, a common control platform and user interface for all scales of operation. 

Cross- Flow Filtration mineral (inorganic) membranes and systems for bioprocessing and separation of biomolecules (e.g. monoclonal antibodies); especially for UF/DF filtration step in downstream processing.
The electro-optical module EOM-pH-mini is a precise OEM solution for non-invasive pH sensor spots. Assembled according to ISO 9001:2000 they deliver certified quality.

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.

Agilent’s Gene Expression Wash Buffers are optimized and validated for consistently reliable, high volume, post-hybridization processing.
