High throughput and high productivity are standard fare for every Beckman Coulter centrifuge and the Avanti JXN Series is no exception. It’s more than capable of delivering solutions for shared labs, GMP environments, networked instruments and more.

Magnosphere™ is a superparamagnetic particle for in vitro diagnostics and bio research applications.

PRP-X300 is a polymeric column packing for the separation of alcohols and organic acids.

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.

Pure-Fit® SC is an innovative new connective technology that makes it possible to create true sterile connections anywhere – even outside the clean room environment.

The SPRIworks Fragment Library Systems have built-in size selection and prepare fragment libraries for all three major next generation sequencing platforms. SPRIworks Systems simplify and automate fragment library construction for the Illumina Genome Analyzers, Roche GS FLX DNA Sequencer and Life Technologies SOLiD Sequencers.

Resin are designed specifically for intermediate purification steps that remove host-cell contaminants from partially purified targets using strong or weak hydrophobic interactions. Methacrylate-based beads for protein and nucleic acid purification using hydrophobic interactions are available for purifying compounds that have weak or strong hydrophobic regions.

The DoverPac® Bag In/Bag Out (BIBO) containment system is a family of contained transfer designs for multiple processes. The primary components for this validated operation consist of multiple groove canisters, docking interface hardware, and softgoods in either continuous liner form or discreet liners.
